This has been here for a few years now, and is still unresolved. There were some workers checking the pothole last year but didn't know when it would be repaired. It's unfortunately getting much worse and is the width of some cars now, which also means it's often unavoidable due to parking on each side of the road.

  • This pothole is awful! It’s damaged road surface around a manhole cover and is definitely getting worse. As the original poster says it’s hard to avoid and while in a car it means a big bump which could result in damage, it could be extremely dangerous on a motorbike or bicycle.
