This pothole was reported just over a year ago. It was subsequently filled in with what looked like loose MOT but this has now all been ejected by passing vehicles and the pothole is now about 6 inches wider and causing a significant hazard to traffic.

    There is now an additional chunk out of the edge of the crater which now extends another 3 or four inches into the carriageway. It looks like some of the top layer tarmac has been dislodged and is now sitting loose a few feet further down the carriageway. This pothole is going to get worse fast particularly as the tarmac is being softened in the sun.
