To report potholes outside Oakland County…
(or state roads within the county) The Michigan Department of Transportation has created a pothole hotline for state roadways. To report a pothole, you can call 888-296-4546 at any time of the day or night, seven days a week, or use the “Report Potholes” link. When you report a pothole, you will need to know the location, the county, the closest community and the cross street or interchange nearby.
Potholes on non-state roads should be reported to local road commissions since MDOT does not have jurisdiction over roads that are not part of the state system
