Snow Hill Junction Flitwick Road Maulden

Reported via desktop in the Road Surface category anonymously at 14:27, Thursday 13 February 2025

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 418853.

There is a large pot hole / failing of the road surface that is breaking up and leaving gravel on the road surface. This means that any car turning left from the main high street into Flitwick road when travelling in the direction of Ampthill is slipping on the loose/broken road surface and is at risk of hitting any car waiting in the junction to turn onto the main road by the War Memorial. I appreciate that the matter has been reported previously and is scheduled for fix, but this surface needs urgent repair and/or the debris clearing regularly to avoid vehicles turning and loosing traction whilst manoeuvring around the bend. This is getting worse everyday and the fact that the pot hole is increasing in size and cars are skidding regularly when just manoeuvring shows how dangerous this is and how urgent a repair is.
