The issue still exists. I do not expect anything to change. After all, this Atlanta and not getting things fixed or completed is the norm!

Two years after I filed the complaint about the terrible bumpy streets of Atlanta, nothing has changed!!

As time waits for no man, my issue continues to exist year after year. As a citizen of Atlanta, GA., I have to wonder if my concerns are heard or will ever be addressed. I think not because the streets are horrible still and probably will always be. Humph! This means that tax payers have no say so in how the streets of Atlanta are worn out and never re-done. Why should we pay taxes then if we can't get results for situations such as bumpy, lumpy, ragedy old streets?!!

No PROGRESS!!

09.4.2014-After 960 days dealing with and reporting this issue, still NO RESULTS! I am inclined to believe that this issue will never be addressed. What is wrong with our local government?! Attention is in all the wrong places! The streets in some of the downtown Atlanta areas are horrible and it appears that they always will be. Amazing!

October 7, 2014
Still no absolute progress!!!!!

12.03.2014- Still no results! SMH

STILL NO RESULTS!

Still NO RESULTS!! SMH

I will leave this issue open until there are results that will benefit the area as a whole. It is dispicable that no on has addressed this!

I don't think that this issue will ever be addressed. How many years now since I first reported? Shameful! :(

Really? The year is 2015, July and still no results! The city of Atlanta is the absolute worse. This street issue is very serious and continues to worsen. Atlanta's government is simply despicable! How obsurd that years after reporting this it has never once been addressed! What kind of community is this? No pride no self worth!!

Why does this blog or reporting method even exist when clearly nothing has been done since I first reported on January 17, 2012? How many years was that now? Unreal!

Nobody cares! YEARS of no progress!!!

Should I expect changed? After this many years and no resolution, I think NOT! Unreal.

Nothing! Nada! Nil!! The worst government ever!!

Almost five years later and still NO Results!!!😒🙄

This is clearly a problem endemic to your local (Atlanta) government, and your particular area isn't alone as far as being stuck in this conundrum. On the whole, SeeClickFix actually does work to bring about change such as street repairs in many communities (whether of the city or town size), but this online system by itself is only designed to be a reporting device; for things to actually happen after a complaint/request/suggestion is filed the relevant governing bodies have to have an active vested interest in local betterment, and unfortunately all too many appear to not give a hoot in this regard.

Well stated and I totally agree! I actually gave up years ago, yet I keep this active hoping that others will read it. Thank you!

You're quite welcome. By the way my friend, whatever you do, don't ever, ever give up. It is after all your seemingly inevitable total surrender (and concomitant subsequent silence), that "they" - the ultimate powers that be in Atlanta - are unquestionably after. They would like nothing more than for you to go away quietly while they go about "business as usual."

I promise to continue to fight this!!👊

Good for you; that's the spirit! :)

I think it is time for me to show this issue on the news! I wonder if it will be addressed afterwards?! Probably NOT!

Probably five years later and still no results. The issue still exists. This time, I shall expose this government by providing my paper trail since 2012 to someone who can help. SMH. What is wrong with my city?!

Still no progress! SMH

Although no changes have happened with this in almost 6 years now, I don’t think they ever will. I have aged waiting for help with this issue that still exists. At any rate, I will never stop blogging about this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am very sorry to hear that this issue has not been addressed. ATL311 just recently became active on SeeClickFix and I would like to assist you with this issue. I have went ahead and submitted service requests to repair the streets for all 4 locations you mentioned in your original post. The service request numbers are 188848425, 188848711, 188848781 and 188871851. I will keep track of these service requests and let you know any updates that I receive.

@ ATL 311. Thank you so very much!!!!!!!!!

Update time! Potholes have been repaired on Fulton ST and Pryor ST. If there are additional locations of potholes that need to be repaired on those roads please provide specific location details. As for University Ave and Hank Aaron DR, those requests are still open for entire street repairs. If we receive any more updates we will keep you posted!

@ATL 311. You are awesome! Hopefully, the others will be rectified as well.

Absolutely! It will just take a little longer, roughly 24 business days, to resolve since it is a bigger job.

MLK DR between Broad and Forsyth has to be the worst stretch of road in Atlanta. It's like a war zone.

Understood!

You are correct about MLK! I have traveled that road when traffic is extreme trying to take the street to work by getting off of the expressway. It definitley has its issues.

Still no results!😡😡😡

From what I can see on Google Maps Street View from Nov 2017, it looks like MLK between Broad & Forsyth is pretty well patched up (see attached picture).

What is the status of the University & Hank Aaron Dr issue?

The streets that you mentioned were recently patched. No progress with the others. Unfortunately, I’ve lost interest because I know that after these many years, nothing will change.

What are the other streets or intersections that need attention? We will continue to make requests until the issue is resolved!

University Avenue and Pryor Rd/Street

Also Hank Aaron has not changed either.

Thanks for the details! I just created service request #1123671642 for the University Ave and Pryor Rd intersection! Can you provide an address or intersection on Hank Aaron where the other pothole/ road repair is needed?

It appears to be almost the entire street on Hank Aaron. Thank you so much for your help as it will be nice to drive on streets that are not damaging vehicles of all whose use them.

You got it! I just submitted service request # 1123786524 to address Hank Aaron road.

The ATL311 issue for University Ave & Pryor Rd is showing completed, and the Hank Aaron Rd issue has an SLA response due date of 7/18/18.

Wow. Thank you !!!!! Fianlly!

I thought that I would actually see improvements in the area where I work that I first reported on my commute. Well, guess what? No such luck! That area has not changed and will not change. SMH.😒

We apologize for the delay and will continue to address these issues until resolved. To ensure each pothole has an individual request, please clarify which potholes have not been addressed so we can create them, thanks!

Hi, thanks for the opportunity. Gammon Street where it enters a local high school, Pryor Road and McDonough Blvd from start to finish has the worst potholes ever! Literally, you can tear up you car on McDonough Blvd.

Thanks for the clarification! Service request #1138189807 was made for the Pryor Rd potholes, #1138219762 is for Gammon St, and #1138219804 is for McDonough Blvd potholes.

Thanks again!

Our pleasure!

Although ATL311 has definitely helped some, but the recently reported streets, McDonough Blvd and Gammon St are still a nightmare to drive on! Gammon leads to the local high school and the part of the street that connects to the high school is terrible! Deep pot holes, bumps and lumps all the way. This street needs to be repaved as a whole and has been like this for many years. McDonough Blvd is a tragedy waiting to happen. There are way too many potholes that have been patched and opened back up a couple of weeks later. Trucks and cars use this street all day. People almost wreck with other cars trying to avoid the pot holes.

Good morning. I pulled up Service Request 1138219762 for Gammon St and it was closed with notes that it was completed on 02/14/2019. I have resubmitted the issue via Service Request 1140436767. I also pulled up Service Request 1138219804 for McDonough Blvd and see that it was also closed with notes that it was completed on 02/13/2019. It has been resubmitted via Service Request 1140436939 so that they can come back out. Thanks for letting us know.

Thanks for resubmitting, but all they are doing is patching and not even patching everything. Just days later these street/potholes are opened back up. The streets need seriously paving and they never came near the school on Gammon. Thanks so much! Your help is appreciated!

Thanks for keeping us updated! Where on Gammon St SE would you like this request to be placed to ensure it is addressed?

The end that joins the high school (which is the very top of the street) near the park.

The area right before the gate that joins the community and the school.

Good morning and thank you for providing that information. We have added it to the request.

I saw the improbeing made to McDonugh Blvd 30315. This is great. Hoping for great results!!

That is great to hear!

I guess I was typing too fast! "Improvements" being made...

To: ATL311
I’m so excited to ride on McDonough Blvd these days via my commute to work! This road has improved so much while I was on my spring break. This did not happen without your help! Now if we can just get Gammon Street up to par where it meets Carver High School. At any rate, seeing results makes a difference! Thanks so much.

Our pleasure! For clarity, is there an address or intersection that can be used on Gammon St. for a service location?

I don’t know an address, but if they come to the top of the street where you can see Carver High School where Gammon connects to the high school parking lot, it can’t be missed. People who live on Gammon cut thru the school parking lot daily because the parking lot connects to Gammon which is just crazy potholes at the connection.

Thanks for the clarification! We submitted service request #1142704380 for this road repair.

Thanks so much! This is the high school where I work.

I am at a loss for words! The immense work that has happened on McDonough Blvd is wonderful! Finally, my commute to work seems flawless now. My colleagues and I are extremely appreciative of the hard work of the crews who were sent out to do this work! This makes me very happy to be able to have such a smooth ride on this road. You are the best for helping me to get that communication to the proper people. The end result is almost here as those workers continue to get it done! Thank you ATL311! A million thank yous for your help!

Glad we could help and you're welcome!
