This has been like this for the 17 years I have lived on E. 34th St. It has progressively gotten worse over the years. It is embarrassing. I cannot tell you the numerous repairs I've had to get on my cars (alignments, wheel bearings, axel work, control arm and new tire and rim from hitting a pot hole on this street). I try not to go down it if I can. I do live on this street so it makes it kind of hard as it is the shortest way to get to work. I will not have relatives come and visit. Last time they were here from FL, they had a rent a car and hit a pot hole in this area and had a blow out. The same spot has not been fixed 4 years later. COME ON LORAIN ELECTED OFFICIALS! It is horrendous to drive on Pearl Ave. heading south. Once you cross E. 36th St., it's like a mine field trying to dodge chuck holes. all the way down to Rt. 254. Shameful and an embarrassment to our city. Part of Pearl was finally done (LOVE IT!) not lets do the rest and get on Sheffield Township to do their part too. Same for Clinton Ave. from E. 42nd to N. Ridge Rd. Time to stand up for our rights and our cars!
