Waymo offers pothole data to cities via Waze to fix streets

Waymo is launching a pilot program to share pothole location data it collects with select cities through Google’s Waze for Cities platform, enabling real‑time pothole mapping to speed repairs and improve safety for both human and robot drivers. The pilot, starting in the San Francisco Bay Area and expanding to Los Angeles, Phoenix, Austin, and Atlanta, uses sensor data from Waymo’s fleet to identify potholes (about 500 already identified) and aims to broaden to other street conditions while presenting Waymo as a city partner amid regulatory tensions.

Colorado Springs city officials are preparing for a major storm that is expected to bring warmer and wetter weather, causing concerns about potholes and fallen trees. The city has crews on standby and encourages residents to report any potholes or downed power lines. Colorado Department of Transportation is also tracking the storm and urges drivers to stay home if possible, or keep a safe distance from plows if they need to travel.

Schwarzenegger's pothole repair efforts disputed by city.

California is facing an overwhelming number of potholes due to the harsh winter, and road crews are struggling to keep up with the backlog. Arnold Schwarzenegger and a group of bikers have taken matters into their own hands, filling potholes in their neighborhoods and inspiring others to do the same. The state Transportation Department has performed over 85,000 pothole repairs in the first quarter of this year, more than two and a half times the number in the first quarter of 2022. The problem has been attributed to the procession of winter storms that have battered the state since December, and the department that fills potholes needs more workers and has hundreds of job vacancies.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's Pothole Controversy in L.A.

Arnold Schwarzenegger, frustrated with a "giant pothole" near his home in Los Angeles, took matters into his own hands and filled it in with his team. The video of him doing so has gone viral on Twitter. While city officials say the damage he fixed was actually a service trench related to active work being performed by a utility company, Schwarzenegger and his team filled a separate pothole. The incident highlights the frustration many Angelenos feel about potholes, which have become a big problem in the city.
