Large dip in road that is getting worse and especially dangerous on 70mph road

Reported via mobile in the Road surface (NH) category anonymously at 12:30, Sat 19 July 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7902024.

The dip is getting bigger and is across both lanes travelling east and north on A38 just past South Brent turn off. I can see this was reported on 20 June but it has got worse and I can't see any progress on your website or what is going to be done. Someone will have an accident here soon as the dip is getting larger and especially dangerous. Damage to cars is also likely.
