The sidewalk crossing near the elementary school on Chaplin Crescent has a deteriorating pothole that's filled annually with temporary asphalt patches that break apart into loose gravel—creating a hazard for children as debris is scattered by vehicle tires. The defect collects water during rain, forming puddles that obstruct the crossing. A permanent repair is needed to ensure safe passage for pedestrians, especially children using this school route.
Description
Big pothole on the crossing leading to elementary school. Each year they fill it with shovels of asphalt and then they come off as gravel on the road creating hazard for children as they are thrown by force by car tires. When it rains, it's a big puddle.
