The campaign was founded in 2015 by Mark Morrell, also known as Mr Pothole, in partnership with the website Street Repairs, to encourage the government and local councils to shift away from patchwork fixes and toward long-term resurfacing.
The day encourages the public to use apps and websites to officially report holes, as councils are often only liable for damage if the pothole has been previously reported.
This year, the conversation is centred around The Pothole Partnership - a coalition of the AA, JCB, and British Cycling. They are currently calling for a five-year warranty on all road repairs to ensure that taxpayers aren't paying for the same hole to be filled twice.
Leeds has recently been handed a 'green' light for its road maintenance in a new study from the Department for Transport, with their traffic light tool ranking the city among the best in the country for road conditions and investment.
But there are some locations in Leeds that our readers think are the worst in the city for potholes - and still in need of a little attention. Here are 11 of the worst streets in the city for potholes, according to locals.
1. Stanningley Road
Many readers mentioned Stannigley Road, particularly the stretch heading towards Bradford near the KFC. The patches were said to be getting bigger and bigger, creating what locals called 'jump ramps' that make a standard commute feel like a stunt show. | Google Street View
2. Newly Lane
Once a standard road, Newley Lane was a frequent target for frustration. The section from the top of Broad Lane down to the Leeds and Bradford Road was singled out in particular. | Google Street View
3. Oakwood Lane
Multiple nominations came in for Oakwood Lane, with residents simply naming it with exclamation marks to signal its notorious status in the city. | Google Street View
4. Leeds Train Station approach
Starting from Aire Street and continuing down Whitehall Road toward the viaduct, the city centre's main hub around the Leeds Train Station loop was described as having some of the worst surfaces in the entire district. | Google Street View
5. Stanningley Bypass
Specifically mentioned for the stretch between Bramley Town End and the Swinnow slip road, this high-speed route is reportedly plagued by deep dips and ridges that catch drivers off guard, leading to comparisons with a "Grand Canyon" experience at 40mph. | Google Street View
6. Street Lane
Even the more affluent shopping stretches aren't safe. Readers pointed out that the road directly outside the shops on Street Lane is "shocking". | Google Street View
