    Large pothole in carriageway caused damage to tyre instantly. Will need to get further damage assessed as the steering was affected after impact.

  • I also hit this pothole on the southbound A6 just north of the Desborough roundabout at 16:30 on the 3rd January 2022. Its size makes it difficult to avoid, especially when it is dark. I hit this pothole with my OSF alloy wheel. This pothole should be fixed ASAP, as this section of road has a speed limit of 60mph.

  • Pothole is even deeper and more have appeared! Very dangerous and you cannot miss them. Are you going to be paying for the damages? Let’s hope no one on a motorbike hits it !
