Eaton Road is so bad, anything you have in your car is jarred across the seat. I have to have my car re-alined every 6 months. Next time I will send the bill to the city. Did you ever notice that life squads don't use that hill. Wake up city engineers.

Don't let them near your streets for repaving. The last time our street was repaved they took all the sewers out and we have standing water at every intersection. Watch them closely they are sneaky.

How about Eaton Road hill it is like driving on a wash board in both directions.
Or, are those speed bumps?

Kellee has the right idea. Why not have some of the high-salaried city execs drive around and spot the roads that need attention? It's not that hard.

I also think it's criminal that Carlisle and SUnset Drives aren't on the list to be fixed. Those folks have so much more traffic than they bargained for since Millikin Woods opened up as a thoroughfare.

How about Zimmerman Ave (both sides of the tracks) in Lindenwald. The west side portion is like an obstacle course. Patches on top of patches, potholes, etc. Needs to be done all of the way from St Clair to the northern end that runs into the old railyard.

don't let little kids ride their bicycles on the street. There are holes big enough to swallow them up.

Put some bricks in all of the pot holes and it will be like driving through main street.Or you can invite extreme off roaders to race Hamilton streets and charge for addmission....we could pay for a firecracker for our 4th of July.

As broke as the city is do they REALLY need to hire a consultant to tell them which streets need fixing?? Honestly? All you need to do is send out a survey or have city employees DRIVE AROUND the city. It will become very obvious very quickly which streets need attention. If you must hire someone why don't you hire residents to do the job. With 11% + unemployment in the city I'm sure you'd find plenty of takers.
