Failed road surface on newly layed surface.

Reported via mobile in the Road surface (NH) category anonymously at 17:22, Thu 10 July 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7858810.

Lane 3 on the newly layed section of carriageway, just after Bornewood gravel pit but before the bridge . Failed road surface . Since the hot weather the road has buckled causing a very large " bump" in lane 3 . Whilst on my motorbike 10/07/25 I hit this at 70mph . It felt like hitting a kerb . This is a fatality waiting to happen , it was by luck I didn't loose control . This is a serious defect which requires immediate attention
