Letter to the editor: Why can't simple fixes be made to our poor roads?

And so the story continues with those in position to note and fix poorly maintained main streets not doing much about them.

Now we have PennDOT. They have left the exit ramp from Pittsburgh Street in Greensburg just past Aldi heading east in terrible condition all summer. This exit ramp is pothole heaven and is ripe for a major accident from vehicles swerving around these holes. In addition, the damage to tires and suspensions from hitting them grows.

They have been contacted a number of times about this and failed to react with a fix. Also, it seems other road repair crews, supervisors, etc. from Westmoreland County, Hempfield Township and the City of Greensburg who all travel over this area regularly have failed to act. What does it take for simple fixes to be made?
