A30 - Unsafe Road Repair - Monkton.
Reported via desktop in the Road surface (NH) category anonymously at 16:40, Wednesday 8 April 2026
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9259462.
A road repair has changed shape and causes vehicles to bump over it, notably lorries. It is next to a water leak (which has been reported). The noise is causing a problem in the area, and I wouldn't want to hit it on a bike.

Still unsafe especially lorry’s driving over it a high speed later at night when they think there’s less traffic and can go faster

The noise when lorries hit this is ear shattering. We are getting woken by the noise. Safety also concerns me for motorbikes using the road, especially when wet. As the road is currently closed overnight (8pm to 6am)until the 26th April, would this not be the perfect time to repair this properly?

Thank you for making your report. We have asked our inspection team to attend this location and assess the issue.
If any work is needed, they will arrange for this to happen. Should no immediate work be required we will continue to monitor this during our regular inspections.
Although we always aim to complete repairs as quickly as possible, timescales do vary as we try to minimise disruption to customers by combining activities into single closures and always ensuring the safety of our people.
Kind regards
