Pothole in road

Reported via desktop in the Pothole category anonymously at 08:34, Fri 28 April 2023

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4495186.

After negotiating the first big pothole as you turn into this road, there is then a second one aprrox 20ft on, right in the lane of the nearside tyres. a potential accident is going to happen as cars move out in to middle of road, to avoid wheel and tyre damage, even with oncoming vehicles heading to junction in direction of Mursley.

Updates

  • 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.
