Cllr. Declan Power told the meeting that while he welcomed the council's continued efforts to tackle potholes, the finished condition of many repairs was falling short.

First, you must ask yourself, is this a town road? A county road? A state highway? This determines who is responsible for the repair and to whom the complaint needs to be directed. Then a series of clicks through your town's website will lead you to a general submission form, a phone number for the highway department, or an email address.

In 2025, Staten Islanders filed almost 4,000 complaints regarding street conditions, predominantly concerning potholes, indicating significant roadway issues across the borough.

The fast lane in each direction on the Golden Gate Bridge will close for three hours weekly for road maintenance, with a focus on light traffic times.

"We recognize the importance of the report and we understand that it's really a reflection of public concern. It's something that we take very seriously," Ryall told CBC Hamilton.
