Big pothole on M271 at traffic lights

Reported via mobile in the Pothole (NH) category anonymously at 17:18, Mon 8 December 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8519104.

M271 at the traffic lights of M27 junction 3 .Needs urgently repairing as the Big, deep pothole from a bad repair is getting bigger, as the rest of the repair is degrading which will lead to several more potholes to appear. The big pothole is about 4 ft long and about 1 ft wide. Reporting this as I drove over this big deep pothole just hoping didn't damage my alloy wheel or puncture my tyre. This could cause an accident.
