It's pothole season.
With spring right around the corner, the snow will begin melting away in Crystal Lake and Cary and potholes will begin opening up in its place.
Bad roads and potholes can mess up your commute. At the worst, they can cause damage to your tires and suspension. Even if they just make you spill your coffee on the way to work, potholes—and bad roads in general — can provide more headaches than desired.
Tell us in the comments' section: Where are the worst potholes in town? And, overall, what are the worst roads to drive on in your community?
We’ll collect your feedback, map and share which roads to avoid with you.

Bull Valley. Crystal Springs road (the only part of this road that is drivable is in front of the cemetary, maintained by Nunda Township). Bull Valley you should be ashamed.

Right on, Veronica. Crystal Springs Road from Red Barn to Walkup is a minefield laced with tank traps. Never had it this bad when Nunda maintained it.

I agree with everyone that mentioned Bull Valley! McConnell Road, Country Club Road, and Crystal Springs Road all need help!!! I've had 2 incidences of tire damage just this year, and I put those pot holes to blame. The sad part is that All three are unavoidable for me unless I want to add another 20+ minutes to my work commute, or cut out visits to see my parents. Please, please, please, fix these roads!
