Numerous Deep Holes in Verge
Reported via desktop in the Pothole on pavement/verge category anonymously at 14:13, Wednesday 4 February 2026
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2875085.
The lack of appropriate passing places has resulted in long stretches of the verge being carved up as vehicles try to pass each other on this single track road. The holes are getting rather deep and filled with water, which hides the danger of vehicle damage and also the risk of long-term damage to the road surface itself.

Why is this marked as fixed? I only reported it today and to quote your previous update, “ Our highways team have issued this work out to one of their delivery gangs. We’ll let you know when the job is complete.”

I give up. Not sure how putting a couple of skid risk signs on the verge is considered a fix, but hey it's only my council tax that's being spent.

Had signs erected almost immediately, but here we are almost a month later and nothing else has happened. How can this be closed as complete without actually doing any work?
