Pothole in road on Barnard Close
Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 14:16, Friday 23 January 2026
Sent to North Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8752430.
The highway continues to deteriorate during the last two months with block paving sinking into the ground leaving unsafe potholes that risk trips and falls. The potholes are becoming larger now over 50mm in depth. Children often play in the street meaning that more vulnerable people are at risk.
