Dangerous huge pothole covering 50% of road width, 17th April

Mon, 17 Apr 2023 22:38:13 +0100
50.865475 0.157953

This pothole is huge/very deep, unfortunately today Its caused considerable damage to my car as its impossible to avoid if oncoming traffic and it was full of water so not possible to see how deep it was until it was too late. On further inspection it is clear that it has recently had a dreadful repair which has all come out, it has deep sharp edges I assume where it's been jackhammered out at the last repair, why cant you employ a company that does the job properly? I reported another pothole a few months ago, the guys that came out spent no more than 30 minutes chucking tarmac in the hole and then spent a further two hours asleep in their van. Not acceptable. Please get this one fixed properly, its a narrow road with cyclists and motorbikes at huge risk.
