On A151 near bus top in centre of Whaplode, opposite side of road to 190 High Road outside 37 High Road
Reported via desktop in the Pothole on road/cycleway category by Will Rose at 15:55, Saturday 10 January 2026
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2868622.
It's a pot hole from the edge of a drain cover which is deteriorating rapidly due to recent frosts, as seen in photo large lumps coming out of the hole. It's 150mm deep and approximately 650mm x 650mm. Importantly it's where a cyclist or motorcyclist would naturally ride therefore a major Health and Safety risk and a very high priority to get repaired. I haven't seen it before (I walk the roadside regularly). I would make it HIGH priority due to being main road and possible accident waiting to happen.
