Sinking area in road surface opposite junction between Alan Road and Belvedere Avenue

Reported via desktop in the Potholes and Surface Problems category anonymously at 14:00, Thursday 25 June 2026

Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1287415-T5P9Y3.

There is an increasingly large dip in the road surface which is in danger of damaging vehicle suspension but I fear could one day become a large sink hole area which would be really serious. This is an extremely busy rat run junction taking more than 3000 vehicles per day, some heavy lorries from Reston Waste. Please examine and take corrective action urgently.
