Description

The condition of this road was very bad back in 2014 when I placed the last re-pave request; but now it's horrible! The front lawns of the homes on this street are actually starting to take over the street itself (see picture #1). Much (if not most) of the street has been reduced to a sort of asphalt gravel mixture (see picture #2). Entire portions of the street have been eroded down several layers of asphalt (see picture #3) such that, in the winter, it is impossible for this road to be properly plowed (as it is not anywhere close to a flat, even surface). Hence large portions of snow/ice get packed into the gouges and remain there, unaffected by salting, making it difficult to even get home (as the entrance to the street has a brief, but sharp, uphill portion.) Only because last winter was so merciful was this not a huge problem, so please re-pave this before the upcoming winter hits!! It is a tiny dead-end road with each house on it occupied; hence it will be a quick and easy -- but an urgently necessary -- job. Thank you so much!
