Large Pothole between lanes on the A56 dual carriageway northbound, 25th April

Thu, 25 Apr 2024 08:54:18 +0100
53.695115 -2.323386

I've noticed a lot of shallower potholes for several months mainly in the right hand lane but also on the left lane. The main issue is a large deep pothole in between lanes. At 50mph it is difficult to quantify the size. I hit this pothole and instantly got a puncture so had to pull off the dual carriageway.

Badly uneven & dangerous road surface on A56, 7th April

Sun, 07 Apr 2024 07:54:01 +0100
53.688227 -2.306086

There are a series of dangerous gaps in road surface / differentials in height along this stretch of the A56 (heading North) between the junction by Tesco (Syke Street) and the exit onto Grane Road (just before the A56 becomes the Haslingden bypass). On changing lanes my car hit one of these points on Saturday 6th April at around 12pm with such force that the steering is likely damaged and wheel likely buckled. Exact damage TBC by mechanic. This is highly dangerous! Not possible to safely stop and take picture of the road surface as there is no hard shoulder and this is a fast road, please fix this as a matter of priority!

Deep pothole towards left hand side of the outside lane (as the single lane bends right after the Tesco and overhead bridge). Definitely could cause a lot of damage to vehicles.

Between both junctions (towards rising bridge) there is significant pot hole deterioration between both lanes on the white lane markings and the fast lane.
