Along with traffic lights that are out of synch, potholes represent the biggest challenge readers encounter during their daily commutes.
Stephen Margolis has an issue with some in the city of Atlanta.
“There are multiple potholes and pothole-related bumps in both lanes on Clifton Road heading up the hill past Wesley Woods toward Briarcliff Road. The left lane potholes and bumps are worse than the right lane. It has been bad for a long time,” Margolis wrote.
We sent the issue to the county and let you know when the issue is addressed.

Gene Henry is tired of a water leak in the city of Atlanta. With its aging infrastructure, Atlanta is constantly dealing with leaky pipes and spurting water leaks throughout the city.
“This (leak) is at 1565 Lazy River Lane. This massive leak has been going on for four days and (has had) zero effort by the city of Atlanta to repair. My engineer neighbor calculated that literally thousands of gallons are being wasted pouring down the street. We have called this in and zero response. All of this while our water bills have doubled over the past year. This is beyond incompetent,” Henry wrote.
We sent the issue to the city and will let you know when it is fixed.
