If you know the location of a pothole that hasn’t been fixed yet, there’s a chance no one has reported it yet.

INDOT and local officials do have crews on the area roads looking for the rim-benders and hubcap-takers, but the heaviest-trafficked roads are the first priority when they’re looking.

Neighborhood roads take longer to be discovered, so if you want to have crews work on your street — don’t assume that someone else has spread the word about the problem.
