  • The potholes remain present despite this report now being over 10 days old. The initial response advised a 5-day timeframe, which has not been met. I am concerned that continued inaction may constitute negligence, as vehicles are now being damaged. Please provide an update, as the potholes are worsening and becoming deeper and wider
