For RCOC, pothole patching
is a year-round activity

   For the Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC) patching potholes is something we do year-round.

    The springtime is typically the busiest time for potholes, as the ground thawing under the roads can make the pavement less stable and ripe for potholes. However, potholes can and do occur at any time of the year, so RCOC crews are out patching 12 months of the year.

    When patching potholes, the Road Commission works on a priority system similar to the way it plows roads in the winter: Safety dictates that the roads with the most traffic moving at the highest speeds must be the first priority.

    Once the busier roads have been patched, RCOC crews move to less traveled roads. Subdivision roads carry the least amount of traffic moving at the slowest speeds, so these are typically patched only after the busier streets have been completed.

   To report a pothole to the Road Commission, call 877-858-4804 or, for non-emergency situations, fill out our online form: Contact Us.
