Road surface rapidly deteriorating with multiple potholes

Reported via desktop in the Road Defect category anonymously at 13:48, Tuesday 18 February 2025

Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7152003.

Between M25 Spur roundabout and Chelsfield mini-roundabout the road surface on the A224 has rapidly deteriorated. Multiple potholes along the section of road in both directions. This is a clear SAFETY HAZARD and needs urgent rectification as this is a 60mph carriageway.

  • For information, the order for this repair remains outstanding within our contractor's planned schedule of work. Further arrangements are currently being undertaken to provide traffic management and/or the necessary specialist equipment in order to undertake these works.

  • These potholes have been outstanding for well over 2 months and are a danger to traffic. It should not take your contractor this long to arrange traffic management. When are they going to be fixed?

  • Why do side roads get resurfaced before main roads?

  • Only a few of the many potholes on this section of road have been dealt with. The highways inspector needs to reinspect the road and follow up on the many defects still unresolved (particularly those by Hewitts Farm roundabout).

  • I agree with the above, This road hasn’t been fixed at all. It needs properly inspecting.

    Posted anonymously at 19:08, Wednesday 21 May 2025

  • The road receives regular inspections upon which any assessed safety defects identified will have remedial works raised. Specific issues can be reported as a new report via: https://fix.bromley.gov.uk using the map pin and description to provide as much information as possible to identify the issue.

    We ask that multiple issues are logged as separate reports. This allows us to provide clear information on what issues are assessed to require works, and which may not reach our Investigatory Levels. It also enables us to link any outstanding works to a report and raise works for new defects that meet our investigatory levels, so it is clear what action is being taken against each issue.
