Major defects on A1 road surface.

Reported via mobile in the Pothole (NH) category anonymously at 09:29, Mon 17 March 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7289302.

A number of large pot holes have joined together to form large carriage way defects. This is on both carriageways. Cars are having to serve due to the depth of holes. This applies to the full carriageway from the A1 roundabout to the junction for Wooler.

Updates

  • Thank you for making your report. We have asked our inspection team to attend this location and assess the issue.

    We are aware of road surfacing issues in this location and have temporary uneven road boards in place to pre warn drivers. We have completed some patching in this location in recent weeks and understand the carriageway is deteriorating further. We have further patching works planned in the coming weeks.

    Although we always aim to complete repairs as quickly as possible, timescales do vary as we try to minimise disruption to customers by combining activities into single closures and always ensuring the safety of our people.

    Kind regards
