Dangerous road surface

Reported via desktop in the Potholes category anonymously at 11:50, Tuesday 19 May 2026

Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9475482.

This section of road near to Howick gardens is extremely dangerous to cyclists, I have ridden my bike on this road for the past 8 years and it has gradually got worse. Please can this be made a priority, there a couple of roads nearby that have been completely resurfaced recently and I suggest this section is totally resurfaced before an unfortunate cyclist either falls off because of the diabolical surface or is hit by a vehicle whilst avoiding the numerous holes and ruts. A site visit by a highways engineer would be strongly recommended. I believe this is one of Northumberland county councils coast and castles routes specifically attracting cyclists to quieter roads within the county. Please could some feed back be provided on this issue. My telephone number is 07715350150. Regards Steve Dolby
