street repair

Is it just me, or did the streets get especially torn up this winter? Bunts by the high school is like driving on the moon. So is Delaware extension to the highway, where I live.

Bunts has been like that from Clifton on up for ages...What worries me is that the ones they just 'fixed' are getting potholes - Lewis between Madison and Lakewood Hts already has several holes in it!

The city should've put the money into paving ALL the bad streets rather than on those monster garbage cans and new trucks. I'd definitely rather have my street paved.

I suppose, but in theory the garbage can thing is going to end up saving us money that can THEN go to fixing the streets, so, if it really works out that way in the long run, then I'm fine with waiting.

Hello from New Jersey....

The other day I rode a different way to work, and noticed that the section of McKinley that was ground and overlaid in place (just north of the highway) is starting to come apart already. From what I saw I hope the city does not repair streets this way in the future. But I think that is what is being done where Lake meets Webb. But I really don't know....
