"Filling potholes is a critical part of being mayor. For many New Yorkers, they ask themselves: how can city government respond to the issues that I'm seeing right outside of my house? This is pothole politics."
"The 100,000 potholes filled by Mamdani's DOT is the highest number the agency has addressed in the first 100 days of a year in over a decade."
"That left us with far more potholes than we'd typically see. DOT has sought to eliminate as many of the pesky craters as possible by launching pothole blitzes on three Saturdays in March."
Mayor Zohran Mamdani filled the 100,000th pothole in New York City on April 6, 2026, as part of a month-long effort by the Department of Transportation. This initiative aimed to repair roads following a severe winter that caused extensive damage. Mamdani emphasized the importance of addressing potholes, stating that it reflects how city government responds to residents' concerns. The 100,000 potholes filled is the highest number in the first 100 days of a year in over a decade, showcasing the administration's commitment to road maintenance.
