Os Old Exhibition Public House, Upper Shelton Road, MK43 0LT

Reported via desktop in the Road Potholes category by Saverio Bongo at 17:55, Thursday 9 July 2026

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 16001.

I've spotted three reasonably deep pot holes which have been there for a few weeks. The position of them is making them dangerous especially for motorbike riders that use that road to and from Cranfield. I've also received a report from a resident who has expressed serious concerns about the series of new potholes along Upper Shelton Road.

Comment from a Resident - On the subject of resurfacing/pot holes 🕳️ repairing, can anyone enlighten us about the state of upper Shelton road it’s a serious accident waiting to happen only yesterday a motorcyclist hit a large hole and then was all over the road they were very lucky nothing was coming from the other direction, this could also be a serious problem for pedestrians walking on pavement or roadside. Plus serious damage to vehicles, we have had spend serious amount money replacing parts due to the state of the roads ???

End of Quote. Can action be taken to repair these potholes.
