Road has a massive trench across it

Reported via mobile in the Pothole (NH) category anonymously at 04:47, Tuesday 17 February 2026

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8935788.

Deep trench across the road where previous work has been carried out and where they have filled it, it’s sunk causing a dangerous hole across the road. Traffic having to slow to a crawl to jump across lanes to avoid. Damage to wheels, suspension, steering and other components of the vehicle.

Updates

  • This area of road has a huge trench across it making it dangerous to drive across even when slowed down. There are no warning signs to suggest that this trench is here and it is not clearly visible in the dark. Furthermore there is another trench just before the one located on the map, both of which are causing damage to vehicles and possible accident risks.
