Potholes (Roads)

It seems that money is being wasted elsewhere within Oxfordshire,  what with the new Park and Ride at Eynsham and the massive cycle lane on the Osney Mead trading estate to name two.

The pothole on the bend is Spelsbury is in a dangerous place. It's also huge and deepening all the time. The ones I reported several times on the B4022 past the Tew Quarry still haven't been fixed, so I doubt this one will be either!

Yes Graham, there's almost always a problem there. It is caused by a mains water leak. Seems Thames Water repairs it but the problem reappears a few months later. I'm deliberately care there.

Just be warned as you come into Spelsbury on the Charlbury road

I have used the ‘fix my street’ website to report potholes in the past, but my argument is that whilst this is fine for fixing individual potholes, the scale of the problem warrants a systematic approach from Oxfordshire Highways. It will be much more cost-effective to address them all at once than to make repeated visits to repair individual potholes. Judging by the report in the Oxford Mail (https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/25725621.oxfordshire-pothole-compensation-claims-297-per-cent/) this is part of a county-wide problem.

I reported one on the road that links the A361 towards the Burford - Stow road using this link - thanks Hannen. I've made a claim against Oxon CC as I hit the edge of it at 40mph - it was 6' long, 20" wide and 5" deep.

I don’t think I have seen so many potholes around Charlbury. Rather than report each one individually to Oxfordshire Highways, is there a case for submitting a comprehensive photographic schedule requesting that these be dealt with at once? If so, how might this be achieved?
