Approx 7ft long pothole along middle of busy main road

There are 2 potholes approx 7 foot long running along the middle of this very busy main road. I reported these two months ago on 4/2/25 (reference 7081441) but nothing has happened other than a white line being drawn around them. Further potholes about 200m away have already been repaired. The defects are no longer showing as outstanding on Fix my Street. They are dangerous as the road is used by buses, lorries, cars and a large number of cyclists and drivers could swerve to avoid them into oncoming traffic. Rubble from the holes is also being thrown to the kerbside and could potentially hit parked cars both on the road and in local driveways, causing damage to the vehicles.
