Pothole Crisis in Parkville Missouri | Kansas City News
Description
Potholes are turning Parkville, Missouri, into a nightmare for drivers and walkers alike—especially on Bell Road and Highway 45. Residents like Darlene Meyer are furious over crumbling temporary fixes that vanish in a month, raising safety concerns as weather cools. While MoDOT promises repairs for Highway 45 this fall, Bell Road’s upkeep falls to the city, which says full repaving and sidewalk work are part of a larger project once underground utilities are done. But with apartments nearby and no sidewalks, pedestrians are forced onto dangerous streets. It’s a classic infrastructure lag: growth without maintenance. Both agencies encourage residents to report issues online—your voice matters if you’re stuck with bad roads too.
