The problem
Potholes can be more than a nuisance. They can be a danger to cyclists and others. In the UK, there’s an average of one road defect for every 110 metres of road.
What can I do?
Local councils have a duty to maintain the roads, but they can only fill a pothole if they know about it. If you want it repaired, you have to report it.
Cycling UK set up FillThatHole so all road users can have an easy way to report potholes and road defects wherever you find them. Cycling UK contacts the right people to get the roads repaired. Councils are generally quick to respond – we know because you’ve told us. Report your pothole now.
