This pothole is at a intersection used by a great majority of the residents entering and exiting the Maxwell Park neighborhood to/from the 580 offramp. Because it straddles the narrow 2 way road, cars consistently cross into the oncoming traffic side of the road to avoid being jolted by the hole.
Also, with the recent rain, this pothole has gotten larger, and there are several other potholes within the next 2 blocks of Birdsall. If the crew that comes to patch this pothole could just do a some of the larger ones in the next 2-3 blocks it would save the city money/resources vs. coming out multiple times to the same street.
