I watched a pothole on Wade Avenue almost swallow an SUV Monday afternoon. I whipped out my phone and called the city to report it and was amazed to find it patched less than 24 hours later. The city’s Street Division is top notch.
That was one down, many, many more to go, however. The multiple threats of snow and the salted roads that resulted, combined with the municipal budget shortfalls (and the slump in fuel taxes) means that potholes are destined to become a huge problem on our roads.
Now is definitely the time to be in the car repair business, particularly one that does alignments!
