Road Conditions Update - 2011

[CDawg]

PLEASE ADD YOUR OBSERVATIONS AS WELL SO WE CAN HELP EACH OTHER OUT!

 : Palisades, right lane after Exit 14, but before Exit 15 -- huge, deep, 1 lane wide deep pothole.  Use the inner lane instead.
Glad I am running a couple of PSI higher these days to protect the rims...

[CDawg]

 : Many parts of CR-106 (Harriman State Park) have gravel on the corners.

[CDawg]

 : The west half of CR-106 is now open after a two year repair.  Tarmac like smooth, black ribbon!  Good times!

[CDawg]

 : City still have not fixed the inter-change between Harlem River Drive and FDR.  Still pothole city in the inner lane.

[CDawg]

 : 14th street between 5th Ave and 10th Ave is pothole city

[CDawg]

 : 5-0 stalking right at the NJ/NY state cross over line on the northbound side.

Series of bumps always seems to be getting worse every year right after the newark airport tolls on 78 west in the express lane You'll hit this if you're coming out of the lincoln tunnel and continue into jersey. Had a violent full on tank slapper after hitting one, almost threw me off the bike, chipped some paint off the tank violent.

Williamsburg bridge; Manhattan bound, long ridged holes all lanes..  bikes can maybe avoid it but cages can't.  Careful since it makes 4 wheelers jerk the side..

Lol na.. only after winter..  now they'll close lanes and creat traffic soon to repair it.. but they use such low quality materials, it'll just happen againn.. job sercurity..

let me get this right, we can build sky scrappers, but we cant patch a make the beast with two backsing hole?    ........

[nicrosato]

Sky scrappers (sic) are built by private developers with profit motive.
Roads are maintained by our financially-challenged governments.

Let's try to keep this thread on topic on road conditions...Thanks.

They are starting a lot of the patch work. So watch out for closed lanes making traffic and black tar gravel (since the stuff they use sucks)
