The 3ft pothole could be the worst in the capital and has been there for a week.



A huge crater in a busy road has been branded the worst pothole in the capital after a desperate local wedged a bin in it to warn drivers about the hazard.

The 3ft hole was seen outside Deptford Green Secondary School in New Cross, south east London, several days ago, but has still not been fixed.

The council appear to be aware of the hole because it has now been surrounded by bollards.


One fuming local resident said: 'The hole is about a foot-and-a-half wide and looks like it's a couple of feet deep.

'It's got temporary barriers around it now but the bin is still there.

It looks like they're going to fix it, but they still haven't.'

Catherine Jones, who spotted the bizarre bodge job on Friday, said: 'It's been there a while, but I couldn't say how long exactly.'

There's been previous work done on the lights crossing recently because of another hole, but I noticed this because the bin was obviously in the road.


One local was so concerned about the giant pothole they wedged a large blue bin in the 3ft deep crater.

Potholes on Federal highways in some countries are pits, big enough to swallow a car.

Poor Africans that produce nothing for export, import everything from rice to common socks, would want to compare their environment and economy with that of industrialised nations.
