Lane Marking Pothole

Reported via desktop in the Pothole (NH) category anonymously at 19:35, Thursday 19 March 2026

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9150353.

Long 1-2 metre by 10-15cm pot hole along the exit lane of the M5 Jct 6 going southbound. Not dangerous to car users. However, dangerous to motorbike riders such as my self.

Crossing from lane 2 to lane 1 to exit, I hit the pothole and damaged my tyre, luckily did not come off.
