Two potholes on the left side of road (as you approach Lavendon). One is very deep. There is no lighting along there so impossible to see until it was too late to avoid it - it has damaged my tyre which will now need to be replaced.

There is a big dip in the road due to a metal grate but it is not quite a road pothole, 7th February

Wed, 07 Feb 2024 11:35:46 +0000
52.161428 -0.643196

This pothole has been here for at least 3 months and is on a bend opposite the church/out buildings- going from Northampton to Olney on the A428. I have gone over the pothole numerous times and have lost control of my vehicle. When I try to avoid the pothole, I have to go into the other lane with incoming traffic. This has also resulted in my wheel being unaligned

Faded road markings... no cats eyes, 30th October

Fri, 30 Oct 2020 19:57:06 +0000
52.161284 -0.642631

To whom it may concern, I am writing with regards to the highway A428 in the small hamlet/village of Cold Brayfield, Bucks (close to Turvey on the beds/ bucks boarder). During the dark winter months, the road is difficult to navigate due to a lack of any decent road markings (very faded white lines, and no cats eyes). There are also no street lamps going through the area, which has a lot of trees making it even more dark therefore hampering night time navigation. Contrast this part of the road with a section just another minute further towards Lavendon, and the difference is marked. Is it possible to, at the very least, have the road markings refreshed please?? Cats eyes would be wonderful too.
