MDOT is asking you to report potholes.
It’s that time of year, when pot holes seem to be popping up on every Mid-Michigan road. That’s why the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) has created an information video that lets drivers know how the dangerous dips are formed, and what they can do to get them fixed.
The youtube.com video explains that the holes in the road are caused by the weather. State Transportation Director Kirk T. Steudle explains that, ““the cycle of rising and falling temperatures this time of year causes more and more potholes on Michigan roadways. He says, “This video will give the public a better understanding of potholes and how they can alert MDOT crews to problem areas. Patching potholes is not a permanent fix, but it does give everyone a smoother and safer drive."
If you see a pothole on a state road in your area, report it by clicking the “report potholes icon” on the MDOT website.
