Cluster of potholes, A45 exit to Lumbertumbs Way

Reported via mobile in the Pothole (NH) category anonymously at 15:37, Mon 2 June 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7651588.

Several potholes creating a very uneven surface of the road. This is 100% damaging vehicle's suspension and other car parts. You can drive slowly if you caught a red traffic light, but otherwise people drive at reasonable speeds and going over the potholes is unavoidable. I've encountered drivers trying to avoid these by swerving left or right instinctively, creating a danger to other drivers.

  • Potholes on both lanes as you exit a45 onto a43. Can’t miss them have been there for sometime, very hard to avoid. They make the car swerve, not good could cause an accident.
