Rick Burnes’ Blog

How many potholes have you nearly wiped out on this winter? In my case, a lot.

To try to get some of these potholes filled, I’ve begun plotting potholes around Boston on this map: http://www.9neighbors.com/potholes.

I set the map up so that anybody can contribute (I moderate posts to keep the data clean). Once I get a critical mass on the map, I’ll get in touch with city public works departments to see if they can get these sites put onto their to-do list.

If you know of potholes that should be on this list, please add them. Also, let me know if you have suggestions or feedback on the map.

One last thing, if you’d like to publish the map on your site, you’re more then welcome to. Here the iframe you’ll need:
