Fixed
The entire length of Windsor Hill
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4474222.
The entire road has a number of deep potholes along it such that damage will be caused to vehicles with alloy wheels or low profile tyres - like our own. The embankments now reduce the road width in parts because they have never been maintained making visibility difficult and when passing other vehicles. Damage or injury will be caused to road users because of the number and depth of these defects.

This has been passed to the local area technician to investigate the enquiry/issue regarding a pothole/road surface.
During winter months we receive a very high number of reports regarding potholes or a poor road surface, it's easy to assume that potholes are formed due to roads being poorly maintained but that is not usually the case. There are many factors that can cause potholes, particularly during the winter months when water seeps in through cracks in the road surface, collecting underneath and when the water freezes, it expands and forces up the road surface in through cracks in the road surface.
Our priority is always the safety of road users, so in some cases during busy periods a permanent repair is not always possible immediately. However, temporary repairs are a way to ensure the area is safe until such times as we can return to make a permanent repair.
