33,188 Potholes in Queens

Tuesday March 29, 2005
That's 33,188 potholes the Bloomberg administration claims to have filled in Queens this fiscal year. See the NYC.gov press release on potholes.

The harsh winter has created potholes all over the city. To report a pothole and get a crew to fix the asphalt, call 311 or use NYC.gov's pothole repair form.

Did you know that asphalt is a solid form of oil? The finest asphalt in the world is from Trinidad's Pitch Lake (photos of this lake of asphalt).
