Reported via desktop in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 10:10, Friday 23 January 2026

Sent to North Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8749828.

I hit a massive pothole on the 19th of January Just after 5pm, destroyed my side wall and damaged my alloy wheel. Tyre deflated and I had to stop just after the railway bridge for recovery. Police attended and thankfully saved me from another accident as there is no hard shoulder or area to pull off. Had to be recovered by the AA at nearly 7:30pm.
