Delco is declaring war on potholes

Hole-y Mackerel!

If you're tired of running an obstacle course while trying to evade those molar-rattling potholes, Delaware County has heard your pleas.

Today county officials will gather - at a pothole no less - to announce a new program to eradicate the problem, and help municipal officials struggling to pay the tab for fixing these pock-marked roads.

County Council will announce Operation PAT, or Pothole Assistance for Taxpayers, at a press conference this afternoon in Ridley Park.

Fittingly enough, the officials will gather around a pizza-sized pothole at Thayer and Barker streets.

Council plans to repurpose Liquid Fuels Funds to help towns fill the holes in their budgets created by potholes.

We'll be there to give you the details
