Reporting a Pothole
Potholes develop when water seeps below the road through small cracks in the pavement surface. As the water repeatedly freezes and thaws, a cavity below the road is formed and larger cracks develop, causing the pavement to crumble.
To report a pothole on a state road, please call 1-800-FIX-ROAD (1-800-349-7623). To report potholes on locally maintained roads, please contact the Hopewell Township Road Department at 724-378-1215. State Roads in Hopewell Township include:

The 1-800-FIX-ROAD hotline should not be used to report traffic accidents, disabled vehicles or other emergencies. Motorists are encouraged to continue to call 911 to report those incidents.
