Maxwell rd near garvin ave and Chesterton green
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5179241.
On the right hand side of the road what looked like a puddle with a lot of leaves around it. In fact was a very very deep pothole which made a big cracking sound when I unfortunately went in it. I went straight to the garage in Warwick Rd To see what damage Ihad incurred I new the tyre was punctured that needed replacing Bill enclosed I returned two days later to find it filled in

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 creates 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.
