FIXMYSTREET IN DE22 2RJ
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of DE22 2RJ:
Potholes and road condition, 28th April
The outside lane of the northbound A38, between Kingsway Island and Markeaton Island, is in a dire state. Potholes and significant surface breakup have plagued this stretch for several months. In fact, the condition has deteriorated to the point where I’ve seen bombed aircraft runways in better shape.
Despite numerous reports to National Highways, no action has been taken so far. Vehicles now have to swerve at high speeds to avoid the problem sections. The road sections are so bad that they’re even triggering the collision sensors on my dashcam. If conditions worsen, it wouldn’t be surprising if they set off an airbag!
This situation urgently requires attention and repair. Let’s hope that authorities address it promptly.

Surface broken down in multiple places between, 25th April
Multiple places from Kingsway island to university turn on A38 north bound, road surface has broken down, very rough and deep in places. It is now limiting traffic along this busy A road and has effectively reduced this from 2 to 1 lane across this section as people try to dodge the damage, people weaving in and out to quickly avoid the damage. The damage has been here now since last year and is getting worse daily. The uneven road temporary signs that have gone up don’t give a true reflection of how bad the road is in this area.

Pothole and dangerous raised curb norbury close allestree, 20th April
Near the second gateway to Lawn Primary School (first pedestrian gateway) there is a pothole on the side of the road, and it is getting bigger and bigger. Alongside the pothole is a raised curb edge that needs lowering as it is a trip hazard.
This has been ongoing for quite some time and I have noticed recently that the rain we've had is worsening the problem very quickly.
It wouldn't take much for someone to trip over the raised curb or roll an ankle in the pothole - lots of elderly residents in the area as well as, of course, a school full of children.

This pothole is the middle of the road and it is slowly deteriorating. Cars are having to swerve to miss it and it’s right next to where i park so chip stone is hitting my car. This needs to be filled asap as it will cause more damage to mine and others cars.

Uneven surface, 20th March
In at least 4 specific areas in the right hand lane of the A38 between the A5111 roundabout and Markeaton has a patch of road surface what looks just like this. Extremely rough to drive on and has been in this state now for months, the point I have selected is just one of the areas, I believe there’s 4/5 patches just like this on the aforementioned stretch.

A38 Uneven surface - outside lane, 8th March
There are a few patches of road in the outside lane between Kingsway and Markeaton Islands, heading towards Derby, where the road surface is in very poor condition. The state of these patches has become worse over time, to the point where it has gone from being a nuisance to a potential danger, especially at night when they are less visible.

Poor road surface, 27th February
Road has been in a poor state for a few months and it has not been addressed. By the roundabout is even worse very uneven and throws cars about. Please National Highways resurface the right lane down to the roundaout. I think if something isnt done cars will start to collide avoiding this poor section of road.

Sunken drain covers, 26th February
At the Markeaton Island southbound there are drain covers that are badly sunk. This is dangerous for motorcyclists like myself and needs attention as soon as possible before a bad accident happens to someone. If a motorbiker is unaware of this and hits one at 30mph + whilst banking for the roundabout, they are very likely to come off. I'd be surprised if this hasn't happened before, these cover have been like this for some time.
