Large pothole on the approach to Maulden just past the derelict farm house.
Reported via mobile in the Road Potholes category anonymously at 07:28, Friday 9 January 2026
Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 432853.
This part of the road is often in need of repair, however last night, just before 10pm, as I drove along the lane I hit a large pot hole which has severely damaged my tyre. I had to stop further along my journey and abandon my car as my tyre was completely flat.
