Private and other roads

Some roads are privately owned and it is the responsibility of the owner to maintain them. If the pothole you report is on a private road, we try to contact the owner.

  • Hedon Road)

In these cases contact Highways England by - 

  • calling 03001 235 000

Report an issue with a road, pavement or kerb

What happens next

When you report a defect we inspect it within five working days to decide the safety risk and when to fix it. If a repair is considered necessary it can take up to 28 days to schedule and complete the repair.

We only have a limited budget for repairing the roads and paths and must manage this budget carefully. We sometimes make a repair in order to make a road safe or useable until larger scale repairs are carried out. 

Providing supporting evidence

If you wish to provide supporting evidence, for example a document or photograph please call 01482 300 300. You will be asked to confirm - 

  • your full name
  • your address
  • your contact details
  • the original service request number
  • location of defect you have reported
