Item: Atlanta (Fulton)

Rhoda Margolis has an issue with potholes.

“The portion of Clifton Road between the CDC and Briarcliff Road is one pothole after another, such that avoiding them requires slaloming up the road. It becomes tooth rattling in front of Wesley Woods. It’s dangerous and unnecessary and is long overdue for repair,” she wrote.

We sent the issue to the city and will keep you updated.

In May, we told you about a reader’s concerns over a utility hole cover.

“This is located at Angier and Parkway (northeast corner) near the new Empire development in the Old Fourth Ward. It has sunken much more since this was taken and is dangerous,” wrote Catherine Chase.

We sent the issue back to the city and will let you know when it is fixed.

Item: Stone Mountain (DeKalb)

Earlier this month, we told you about another pothole issue.

“As you cross the speedbump you drop forcibly into these holes and feels as if you’ve hit the frame of the vehicle, even though you’ve slowed almost to a stop to cross the speedbump,” Ray Rosenberg said.

Stone Mountain officials alerted us Dekalb County covers the area, so we sent the item to them.
