Starting Thursday, the Montgomery County Department of Transportation will devote most of its resources to filling potholes in a two-week push to repair cracked pavement damaged by a wet winter and warming temperatures.

County Executive Isiah Leggett announced MCDOT will have about 60 percent of its resources on pothole duty, a task that’s reliant on resident reports.

Residents can report potholes online or by calling the MC311 Call Center at 311 or 240-777-0311, Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The county said it filled 2,600 potholes in a few days during a brief warm period in February. It snowed a few times after that, though it’s actually the warming temperatures of spring that cause an acceleration of pavement damage and pothole formation.

MCDOT is responsible for the 5,000 lane miles of County roads, meaning you should call the State Highway Administration at 301-513-7300 to report a pothole on a numbered route such as Wisconsin Avenue or Old Georgetown Road.
