The report will go directly to the county maintenance office that will handle the request.

If you’re rather give NCFDOT a call, you can get answers and assistance with potholes in your area by calling 1-877-DOT-4YOU (1-877-368-4968) weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Wikipedia defines a pothole as a depression in a road surface, usually asphalt pavement, where traffic has removed broken pieces of the pavement. It is usually the result of water in the underlying soil structure and traffic passing over the affected area.
