All the road past The Greyhound

Reported via mobile in the Road Surface category anonymously at 22:20, Saturday 7 February 2026

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 435860.

Northwood end road past The Greyhound needs action the tarmac has been eroded by the constant traffic having to go up the verge to get past buses and construction vehicles. The road is flooded in 3 parts and holes are hard to navigate when 2 vehicles meet as the road is now very narrow. My daughter had to go up the verge to avoid a bus and damaged her tyre and I have had my wing mirror damaged by a large construction vehicle. The council have built over 20 new houses in Northwood End Road thus increase in traffic with further add to the already eroding road. I will be reporting this to our councillor who is standing in for Rebecca Hares also.
