This pothole has become larger and deeper because of recent rainfall and flooding under the bridge.

This pothole is now deep enough to cause damage to a car and presents a clear danger to cyclists. It needs urgent repair before someone gets injured.

I hit this same pothole returning from kettering town to Mawsley at lunchtime today 11.11.19 - it is extremely deep and I will be getting my car checked as soon as possible. This is a very dangerous pothole as A) due to the heavy rain it looked like a puddle in the road and B) no-one can take avoiding action due to oncoming traffic. I cannot stress how upsetting this has been in a small vehicle to hit this.

My car hit this this morning and Friday morning 8 Sept 2019. It is a significant pothole now and needs repairing quickly. My wheel gave a hell of clunk when I drove into it. It is not visible with all the rain and unavoidable.

Hit this myself, my mum hit it and her partner, 3 different people in 3 different cars. Mine has hard suspension and it sounded like the tyre exploded when I hit it. Had car inspected, small amount of damage to wheel - massive pothole impossible to see at night. Needs sorting ASAP.

I hit this pothole at night and you can hardly see it and is unavoidable when there is on coming traffic. My car made an awful clunk when my wheel hit it which could cause major damage. Needs sorting ASAP.
