Hey neighbors, please vote for my fix. Thanks. http://seeclickfix.com/issues/218008-faded-street-markings-indicating-no-parking

The street surface does indeed suck but cars don't have to bottom out if they are driven slowly. BTW PGW is going to start working on Ridge on Monday, 9/24.

Sue P. We are driving very slowly. The extra bumps and deeper ridges create an odd angle at the bottom and it is very difficult to avoid bottoming out as you pull into traffic from that angle. .

Bummer, I haven't bottomed out at the bottom of Skidoo or the bottom of Stanton. Good luck.

Although we drive standard cars I guess our cars have lower front ends. Still the condition of the street is a disgrace. Any word on resurfacing plans after Ridge Ave. pGW work is complete?

According to the Danella foreman, they will be back with another crew after PGW is finished and will fix the street, sidewalks and curbs. I hope they will do the whole street, not just patches.

This street still needs work before the ice and snow of winter. The right edge of the street has been repaired with the curbs and portions of sidewalk that were damaged from the pgw work. The central portion of the street that was damaged from the previous water break and repair is still in a patchy wavy condition.

I haven't been down Stanton for about a week and a half. Sorry, but not surprised, to hear they didn't fix the whole bottom of the street. I totally agree that the condition of the street is atrocious. I would call Councilman Jones' office since it is a Streets/PWD problem. Joshua Cohen is the one who get things done at the Councilman's office. A friend suggested "Joanne Dahme is head of Customer Service and Public Relations at PWD. Her email address is joanne.dahm@phila.gov and her telephone number is (215) 685-6110".

Its hard to see the extreme lumpiness of the street during the day - obvious when you drive or even more obvious if you walk on it. photos taken with grazing headlights only begin to show the issue. The street is getting more difficult to navigate.

Unsafe street condition continues to deteriorate. Additional insult is the work done, perhaps in preparation of repair, and left incomplete to further deteriorate overall street conditions.

photo of incomplete repair that has become a dangerous street condition.

This isn't even a matter of a mild street inconvenience. It's a hazard to pedestrians, it's damaging to vehicles, it's unsightly, and it's just plain shoddy workmanship.

More than nine months come and gone, finally - the bottom of the street was completely resurfaced. Yeah!
