Report potholes & highways maintenance

Reporting a pothole to North Northamptonshire Council is the best way to get them fixed, but there is a bigger reason to speak up: Volume matters.

When we all report issues on the same stretch of road, it creates a data trail that the council uses to prioritise maintenance. A single patch might fix a hole today, but a high volume of reports proves that the road surface is failing—making it much more likely to be put on the list for a full resurface.

How to Report in 3 Easy Steps:

1. Go to the Source: Use the official https://highways.northnorthants.gov.uk/ portal.

2. Pin it & Photo it: Mark the exact location on the map and, if it's safe to do so, snap a quick photo to show the depth and size.

3. Submit: Provide a brief description and hit send!

Why your report counts:

• Safety First: It alerts the council to immediate hazards for cyclists and drivers.

• Data Power: Multiple reports turn a "minor repair" into a "priority project."

• Budget Allocation: More reports help our local area secure the funding needed for long-term road improvements.

Don't just drive around it—report it! Let’s work together to get the smooth roads we deserve.
