Those are potholes.
A pothole is a hole in a road surface that results from gradual damage caused by traffic and/or weather (Cambridge dictionary).
You may have noticed, we can say that those are holes in the road (because a pothole is still a hole). But if you say
pothole, you are just more specific and it may be more natural to say it like that.
Check out the meaning of hole here.
True, this is the first word most native speakers would think of. However, it may be worth noting that, when we think of potholes, we usually imagine them on some kind of asphalt or pavement (like this one). Nevertheless, I supposed I'd still use pothole to describe the holes in the OP's image.
