Engine Drove, Helpringham Fen
Reported via desktop in the Pothole on road/cycleway category anonymously at 17:10, Fri 5 December 2025
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2864369.
The whole of Engine Drove has multiple potholes all of which need urgent attention. Some of these are impossible for vehicles to avoid and are getting deep enough to cause damage. Significant patching is required to both return the road back to a better state and to ensure the potholes do not return. This road is used by daily by residents who live at the far end of it by the South Forty Foot.
