Which side of Boundary were you on? Depending on which side, get the City of Vancouver/Burnaby to pay for the repair/replacement.

Has anyone ever had a successful claim for damages due to a pothole? I was reading the Metro and there was an article about claiming pothole damages and the guy from Burnbaby city hall says there are always lots of claims filed but most are unsuccessful.

This reminds me of the thread about the big pot hole on King Ed which ended up being another Si_Ed is gay thread.

I bet only 1/200 rs people will remember that thread.

take a picture of the pot hole in its full unfixed glory then attach it with the complaint... i heard it might take months to get a reimbursement if your claim gets approved

Berz out.

Speaking of potholes, the one on hastings near MAC's/Holdom got filled, but very shitty. and still bumpy at 60+

The one at willingdon, in the left lane just past brentwood mall got filled, smooth

The one on parker just after you turn from willingdon (eastbound) got filled, but with rocks and snow

The other one on hastings snags both lanes (just past the first one i mentioned), not filled.

I vaguely remember this kingsway and boundary pothole. Is it on the right side of the middle lane? ie., you dodge it by going slightly over to the merge lane if there's someone to your left at that precise moment?
