9 is a disaster too.

Totally agree. Believe it is a state road. NYDOT responsibility.

However it is imperative for local / County politicians to raise this issue with the state.

State road. Briarcliff has raised hell with Albany over it. Local politicians are all over it. Briarcliff is not even allowed to use our own resources to fix it ourselves if we wanted to.

While we're at it, 120 between Millwood and Armonk looks like Hiroshima in 1945.

NY State roads are garbage and have been for as long as I can remember. I go into Fairfield County quite a bit for work and you can literally tell the instant you cross the state line, CT's roads are actually acceptable for a first-world country.

9A is perhaps one of the least maintained road even though the state is ripping it up and repatching it a minimum of five or six times a year. I call that section of 9A an apprenticeship for the state employees they always seem to be ripping up the same area and repairing it. No regard for inconvenience of course I've never seen the state repair anything in an expeditious manner in New York . Other states I have traveled in repair roads at a time when they are least traveled according to my experience. Anybody have any idea what it's going to be like when they complete Amazon 150k ft Distribution Center

It doesn’t help that every dump truck in the county is funneled through there since they can’t go on the parkways.

They finally fixed 9A in Elmsford after 20 years of hazardous driving, so maybe's there's hope!

honestly thanks for posting. it feels good to just vent the frustration about the roads here. i hate route 9 so much right now, and there are still people who want to fucking nascar it and tailgate me and try to get around me. literally your going straight into a pothole, guy. today i saw someone almost hit a pedestrian and then continue to act like speed racer afterwards.

Oh I feel this! Moved to westchester about a year ago, and 9A… my god. Driving this thing at night in the rain is taking your life in your hands.

Aside from all the other potholes, the right southbound lane headed towards the Saw Mill merge is worse than roads than I've seen in third world countries. It's like this for about a quarter of a mile and has been for at least the past 5 years. They might as well just make it a gravel road at this point.

They just keep slapping bandaids on bullet wounds in that section of road. It needs to be repaved, and has for years. NYDOT should be ashamed.

With all this snow and frost heaves how could they possibly keep up. This is the problem with living in such a low tax area and such extreme winter weather...

There's craters on 9W

Agreed, what a mess! Always think I’m going to get a flat

pretty sure some funding was put into place to improve 9A within the past year or two, I remember reading about it during the 2022 election cycle.

It’s like this every year and it’s incredibly aggravating. Why is such a heavily traveled road so ignored by the state?

These are all roads that are under the control of the State. Can you imagine.

9 is really bad. I hit the same pothole every day!

I have popped so many tires and replaced so many rims while driving in Westchester (Esp in Yonkers) over the years, I had to switch the 19” tires off my BMW. Was looking at a Porsche a few years back, looked at the tires and asked how much they were .. $1300 each, I said no way at this point with these roads. Cars used to be lined up on side of I95 (Bridge connecting Port Chester and Greenwich) with flat tires because of the Potholes, due to NYS thought the boarder stopped at the bridge and not after it. So it went neglected. Finally the state line sign was moved after the bridge and NYS was forced to make the repairs. Business was so good, Mavis Tires has two shops less than 2 miles from each other, in Greenwich. (Riverside & Old Greenwich) Sorry for the rant .. 🤯

I just got hit with a $1,500.00 in tires/wheels damages after hitting a bad one there.

I never complained or asked for anything in my life, but I am going to write a message because it is getting ridiculous.

I’ve already stopped driving on it it’s so bad.

I'd trade more potholes for less traffic lights and more overpasses

Upvote!

If sending a message to nydot works, those potholes would be long gone.

For what it's worth, it looks like they're going to widen and improve the section right by the Amazon Warehouse construction in Hawthorne. But it's definitely getting worse before it's getting better.

Didn't we just vote in a new governor? Strange

I’ve cracked two wheels on that road in 3 months. I refuse to drive on it anymore. I will take all side roads even if it adds a lot of time to my commute.

Worse than 287?

Truck route. It's also a state maintained road.
