Pothole Reporting Form

Use this form to report potholes

Please Note: Reported potholes are submitted directly to the road patroller who is on-duty on a weekly basis to identify potholes and other road deficiencies. Staff patrol the roads weekly to identify road deficiencies and monitor them for the appropriate time to schedule maintenance.

Potholes can develop on a daily basis. The Township maintains its roads in accordance with the Province's Minimum Maintenance Standards, Ontario Reg. 239/02. The minimum maintenance standard sets out the maximum size (area) and depth that a pothole can be before a repair is required.  It also sets out the amount of time that is allowed to pass before the repair must be completed and that varies based on the amount of traffic that occurs on that particular road.  The standard ranges from 7 days for very heavily travelled roads to 30 days for roads with lesser amounts of traffic.

Pothole deficiencies are repaired on a priority and scheduling basis in accordance with the MMS. Sometimes, that may mean up to 30 days for repairs to be completed. This is done to be as efficient and effective with staff resources as possible. 

Additionally, if you wish to report vehicle damage from potholes, please contact the clerks department by clicking here: Clerks at Wilmot.
