Poor road surface along Norton Lane
Reported via desktop in the Potholes & road surface category anonymously at 22:02, Monday 16 February 2026
Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 8935291.
The road surface along Norton Lane has been steadily declining for years and it is now verging on dangerous. The area marked is especially bad, where the car forcefully jolts and it feels like it is a matter of time before it causes damage.

On closer inspection, the affected area is actually 150m down the road (away from Chew Magna), but I can't move the pin.
