Big hole in the road - Danger to cyclists
Reported via desktop in the Road and Pavement Issues category anonymously at 22:06, Thu 10 June 2021
Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 2783859.
The hole is located in Southlands road approximately in front of house number 237. I first noticed it at the beginning of the month (June ) I ride my bicycle everyday and if there are cars parked on the side it becomes difficult to avoid. I find it very dangerous.

Dear Sir/Madam This hole was reported back on 10 June and although it has been marked, no repair has been done. TODAY 1st July I had the following experience ..... As you can see as usual there was a car parked very near the bigger hole I was riding along the road a car behind overtook me, I found myself in the situation that 1. keep well to my left and possibly scratch the car 2. go over the hole and risk coming of my bike with harmful consequences 3. avoid the hole by moving to right and risk being hit the car overtaking me! I am quite an experienced rider and knowing the existence of the hole I approach the area with extra cautiousness - An accident is waiting to happen!!!
