Near 28 Empingham Road going up the hill on the left hand side.

Reported via mobile in the Pothole on road/cycleway category anonymously at 00:09, Monday 17 November 2025

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2861828.

I cycle up Empingham road from the town centre regularly and as cars park on the left of the road I have to be very careful to avoid the many potholes which run along the centre for quite a distance without moving into the oncoming traffic the other side. I have also been thrown off balance a couple of times.

  • Hello. I recently sent in a report stating that there were several potholes along on Empingham Road near number 28 which needed attention. Having just received an update stating that the issue had been fixed I was disappointed when cycling along the stretch of road in question to see that several of the potholes remain untouched and therefore still a hazard. Please advise.
