Potholes on Bluebonnet

In the middle of the westbound lane of Bluebonnet, there are two monster potholes.  One near but a bit east of the school zone, the other on the downhill slope on the west end of Bluebonnet.  Things that can easily swallow a 20-inch wheel and could damage your average 27-inch wheel.  If you're in the bike lane you won't have any problems, but there's frequently cars parked there, so watch out.

Re: Potholes on Bluebonnet

Reported now.  I guess that was obvious in retrospect.  Thanks, NadiaB!
