Fixed, and a neighbour went back to check.

Fixed in 48 days.

College Street in University-Rosedale is a little better today because somebody said something, neighbours stood behind it, and the city finished the work. That is how this is supposed to work.

This street's story: 11 city catch basins and 3 manholes serve this block. Water that does not drain works into a seam in the road, and that is how a crack becomes a pothole.

Report details · AI-written, reviewed by the reporter

Dear City of Toronto 311,

I am writing to report a significant road damage issue requiring attention from the Transportation Department. The road surface has developed extensive and potentially hazardous structural damage that poses an immediate safety risk to drivers.

Location Details:
Street: College Street
GPS Coordinates: 43.6604105, -79.3883157
Ward 11: University-Rosedale
Councillor: Dianne Saxe

The road surface contains a substantial pavement crack approximately 50cm long and 5cm deep, creating a dangerous fissure that spans multiple sections of the roadway. The extensive fracturing and deep structural damage suggest serious road deterioration that could potentially cause tire damage or vehicle instability if not addressed promptly.

The crack's significant width and depth represent an immediate safety hazard for vehicles traveling along this section of College Street. The structural integrity of the road surface appears severely compromised, which could lead to further deterioration and increased repair costs if left unaddressed.

I urgently request a comprehensive road surface assessment and immediate repair to prevent potential vehicle damage and ensure public safety.

Thank you!,
A Toronto Resident
