Yes, it is pothole season

This is a reposting of the info shared earlier this year (Feb 2014). There are so many new subscribers (Thank you!) you may have missed this, and as we get into the cold days of winter, it may come in handy!

--------

The changing weather is creating potholes on many roads. You can report those you find directly to Franklin with your smart phone or via the website here http://seeclickfix.com/franklin_4

report a Franklin pothole or street light problem

You can also report a pothole directly via the Franklin website here

cracks like these may eventually create a pothole

While this is prime pothole season, the app is also useful for reporting street lights that are out, or traffic light problems.


Prior posts on the app which was introduced in the fall of 2013 can be found here
