Hole in pavement for months

Reported via desktop in the Pavement Defect (uneven surface / cracked paving slab) category anonymously at 01:27, Friday 14 February 2025

Sent to TfL less than a minute later. TfL ref: FMS7132400.

There's been this hole in the pavement for absolutely months, maybe even a year or more, it's been covered by a temporary roadworks cover but it needs fixing. I've had to kick the cover back over the hole a couple times. The hole is very very deep. It's outside Mercure Slots. I think it might be the fault of a utility company but it really does need to be fixed after all this time. Thanks
