This road has been flooding for years and now the whole road surface is crumbling. There will be a horrible accident one day as cars are going into the southbound lane to avoid the deep potholes which could wreck your car if you hit them. They are full of water, and so impossible to avoid

A series of deep potholes, 30th March

Sat, 30 Mar 2024 22:12:06 +0000
51.822345 0.913399

Deep potholes are rapidly forming where previous deep potholes were “repaired” a few weeks ago. To avoid them it is necessary to use the wrong side of the road - dangerous as this is a busy road. Grave risk of head on collision to avoid the risk of damage to tyres, suspension etc.

Overflowing ditches, road impassable going towards Colchester. When travelling from Colchester, oncoming traffic in wrong lane on a blind bend. There is going to be a serious accident. The ditches need cleaning/digging out to allow the flood water to drain. No lighting making it even more dangerous in the dark. I nearly had a head on last week there.
