500mm approx pothole exposing a metal water gully.
Sent to Cheshire East Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 4591054.
This is dangerous to cyclists because of the gap between the metal water gully and the tarmac. A cyclist could very easily get their front when stuck in the gap or change the angle of steering and cause a cyclist to fall off. This is right on the junction with the A50, which is 40mph at this point, so therefore fast enough that a driver may not be able to avoid the cyclist if they fell off into their path. It would be sensible to fill this for the cost involved in carrying out the repair versus the loss of life potentially and collision.
