Road to Sandy Smith Nature Reserve off Shefford Road Beadlow

Reported via desktop in the Road Surface category anonymously at 13:25, Tuesday 20 January 2026

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 433867.

The potholes previously reported here have been filled in but there is a lot of loose gravel/stones in the middle of the road. It’s probably come from the potholes. I use this route to/from work and it’s safest on my bike to go down the middle of the road because of the old potholes.

Is it possible to send the road sweeper lorry to clean this road of all the debris please? Thank you.
