Pothole getting bigger by the week. Needs infilling.
To be honest, whole of east length of Eastfield Lane needs resurfacing. It is falling into decay. Numerous potholes. West section of road was done a year or so ago so it’s ok.

Pothole appearing by road constriction, 3rd April
This pothole appears every year in the same place. Perhaps you can manage a permanent fix for once. It's not large yet, but it will be. It's in that great space by the road constriction that means it catches most cars.

Massive pothole on bus/stop drop kerb area, 5th March
There are lots of problems here and I've been getting increasingly concerned about public safety. This pothole by the bus stop is getting bigger and bigger, the google streetview picture attached even has it visible in 2019. It's much larger now and is causing a hazard for pedestrians crossing with buggies/wheelchairs at this dropped kerb. I've seen a child almost pitched out of a buggy into the road because of it.
This is not the only problem. It is a very well-used road crossing point for children and parents at school run time from the alley that runs parallel to Kernham Drive to the alley into Condor Close, and would probably benefit from a zebra crossing here. Also, because lots of parents from Brookfields park on the south side of this stretch of road, from Sage Road up to the bus stop, it is extremely difficult to see traffic coming when you are on the path and about to cross the road. I have also witnessed an old lady from the retirement properties on Condor Close almost getting run over here because she stepped out from behind a parked car to cross and didn't see the car coming at her (from the Oxford road direction) on the wrong side of the road. These parked cars are also parking opposite the junction with Kernham Drive which I'm sure is illegal. Please please can you do something to make this area safer before there is a serious accident? Thank you!
