Hazardous pothole
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5589037.
Over time a pothole has become a crater in the first lane of the M5 notthbohnd between the junctions of 11A and 11 outside Gloucester. Has been getting worse over the last few weeks to the point over swerving or remembering to change lanes to avoid it due to its severe size. Needs urgent attention, resurfacing at best.
