Woodcote lane, Burton, LN1 2RD

Reported via mobile in the Pothole on road/cycleway category by Stacy Pearson at 13:29, Tuesday 20 January 2026

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2870931.

The entire lane is riddled with deep uneven potholes that cross the entire road surface. I have to travel this way every week to attend private swimming lessons and it is becoming increasingly difficult to navigate this lane safely with my children in the car, especially in the dark! They are full of water due to the weather so it is impossible to tell how deep they all go and they are unavoidable due to the frequency and location of the holes. It needs sorting asap as it is a high traffic area due to the swim schools using this location. It is not safe

  • We also travel down this road weekly! They can out to “fix” the road and it’s done absolutely nothing! It’s absolutely terrible! They need to come back and do a proper job!

    Some fix! Absolute disgrace. The road is still an absolute nightmare. The works done on Newport last week are a far better job than this joke of a ‘repair’. This road sees substantial traffic to the business at the end and the state of it is not acceptable. The whole lot needs ripping up and resurfacing properly. Or should we be coming to the council with the repair bill for our damaged vehicles?!
