Dangerous Potholes Up and Down the Hill

Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 18:08, Friday 20 February 2026

Sent to North Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8965246.

Numerous dangerous potholes both sides of the road. Cars are now having to straddle both lanes going up the hill to avoid bursting tyres. Cars coming down the hill are having to move over onto the wrong side of the road to avoid bursting tyres. These have been reported many other times, over the past year yet kept getting left. Someone will come out, fill the smallest of holes and leave all the others. Its only a matter of time before a fatal accident happens. This is a road used constantly by HGV vehicles and needs sorting urgently.
