Not strictly a pothole, as it is man-made.
Looks like a manhole without the grate over it, or a roadwork that they forgot to cover up.
Either way, I didn't see it before I was going over it.
Quite how I got over it is also a mystery because it was very big but my poor Aksiums are now dented as a result. Quite glad I stayed on the bike and avoided being driven over by multiple buses.
It is on the North side of the bridge, just by the underpass, on the outside lane.
I also need to claim for my wheel. Stupidly I was too pissed off to take a photo on the spot...as I had somewhere to be. Going to see if it is still there today.....
Not sure what the process is. U'sing TFS now.
