Seattle launches aggressive pothole patrol campaign
11:22 AM PDT on Wednesday, March 19, 2008
SEATTLE - Life is full of ups and downs, but your ride to work shouldn't be that bumpy.
Well your morning commute is about to get smoother. Starting Wednesday, the City of Seattle kicks off a campaign to fill a record number of potholes around town.
"The potholes are really bad," complained one driver. "I'm like, 'Where are my tax dollars going or not going?'"
City leaders hoping to put drivers' minds at ease by filling up more than 1,300 potholes this week.
Six crews are ready to get to work with two on standby. The city promises if you report a pothole, they will fill it within 48 hours.
In addition to pothole patrol, crews will also be resurfacing 30 miles of roadway and replacing old street signs throughout the city.
To report a pothole that really needs to be filled, call (206) 684-ROAD.
