Pike-ramp pothole destroying tires like nobody's business
By adamg on Mon, 03/14/2016 - 3:42pm
Lissa Harris, formerly a crusading Boston-area reporter (and now a crusading Catskills reporter), returned to the Hub today only to promptly blow out a tire on one of our famous potholes near the Allston/Cambridge exit on the turnpike - immediately followed by two more motorists whose tires also got blown out.
UPDATE: Harris reports the blown-tire count is now up to four. The tow truck also hit the pothole, but "he's got better tires, though."

Simple Solution
Raise the tolls 9% and promise a fix sometime in the next 4-5 years
Makes sense to me
Yeah, they say a new interchange on that section of I-90 is being designed and construction should begin before the end of the decade. The old interchange has been around since the 1960s so what do you expect?
WHICH DECADE?
as in "construction should begin before the end of..."
Those two guys are way too
Those two guys are way too happy about getting a flat.
For those who need it:
Filing a claim with the city for reimbursement of damages caused by potholes. However, since this is a ramp off the Pike, it might not be their problem. :/
It's not.
It's the DOT's.
you down with DOT?
yeah you know me...
umm...
umm...
The Pike became part of the DOT years ago.
