Welcome to the Pothole Patrol homepage. We created this website to give you an easy way to inform us of potholes in your neighborhood. You can also learn more about what the City is doing to address this issue, both now and in the future.
Sincerely,
Mayor Dave Cieslewicz

HOW POTHOLES OCCUR
Potholes are a fact of life in Wisconsin. Cycles of freezing and thawing and moisture erode the road base which creates pavement stress. Stressed pavement and traffic combine to cause potholes.
the pothole response
Weather permitting, it is the goal of the Pothole Patrol to respond to pothole reports, no later than the next working day.
If weather is bad, it could take longer to get the pothole patched.
