Bus stop with nowhere to go, 16th February

Fri, 16 Feb 2024 12:22:44 +0000
51.902947 0.57156

I got off bus at this stop on Broad Road just before Church Street and was alarmed that there was no pavement and due to hedgerow nowhere to walk. The only option was to try & Cross a very busy road with no crossing and no island, and then cross back further up the road to walk into Church Street. In future I will get off at the for releet. I must say that this is a very dangerous place for a bus stop!

This pothole is so large and surrounded by un even road. When it rains it looks like a puddle but in fact it's a deep pothole. I drove in it Wednesday evening coming home from home and since then I've had to pump my tyre twice as I've now got a Slow puncture.
