The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced that PennDOT maintenance crews will be working on more than 40 state highways to repair deteriorated pavement in Philadelphia, Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties.
In Montgomery County, Tennis Avenue, in Lower Gwynedd and Upper Dublin townships, were part of the repairs. Workers wrapped up construction work last week in the local area, but PennDOT is still working on spots throughout the county.
The Philadelphia region experiences a high volume of potholes each season due to temperatures fluctuating between freezing and mild, known as a rapid freeze-thaw cycle.
PennDOT would like to remind motorists that potholes can be reported to PennDOT’s Customer Care Center by visiting www.customercare.penndot.pa.gov. To date, since January 1, 2025, District 6 has received over 3,500 customer concerns regarding potholes.
Motorists are advised of travel restrictions and possible slowdowns when driving near work crews patching potholes at the following locations:

Drivers are reminded to slow down in the work zone and refrain from distracted driving to keep themselves and our workers safe.
Crews will be patching potholes until all areas are addressed. All activities are weather dependent. To learn more about patching methods and other maintenance procedures, please see the PennDOT Maintenance Activities webpage.
