Pothole Problems: Where Are the Worst Road Craters in Washington Twp.?

Harsh winter has wreaked havoc on New Jersey roadways.

It's been a rough winter, no one's questioning that. 

From snow days at school to salt shortages throughout the state, towns have had to deal with the inclement weather on a daily basis, Washington Township included. 

With the heavy snow and ice accumulations over the past couple of months, roads may have suffered the most, as small cracks in the pavement a few weeks ago have become tire-busting craters nearly impossible to avoid.

Each town has its share of notoriously bad potholes drivers try to avoid for fear of a blowout, or even worse.

Long Valley Patch put this question out to readers on its Facebook page last week, and a general consensus from nearly two dozen comments had four road sections up for worst in town:

  • Bartley Road (between Naughright and West Morris Central)
  • Schooley's Mountain Road (entire length)
  • Parker Road (between Old Farmers Road and Chester Township border)
  • West Mill Road (between Neighbour House and Long Valley Middle School)
So, Washington Township, which roads have the worst potholes in town? Let us know in the comments, and if you've got a photo of a bad spot, be sure to send it over to jason.koestenblatt@patch.com.
