On Wednesday, four crews were out in San Francisco filling potholes around the city, working to catch up.
“It’s not the record number, but it certainly is high. In February alone, we had more than 1,500 pothole repairs. In January, there are more than 1,000 pothole repairs. On a typical month, there might be 4 or 500 when it’s a dry month,” said Rachel Gordon with San Francisco Public Works.
Gordon said if someone sees a pothole, they are asked to Contact San Francisco 311, so public works so crews can get out there.
Gordon also gave tips on what what you can do if you think you have damage to your car or bike.
