My son was involved in a terrifying car accident because of a pothole on Roosevelt off of Woodlawn Road in Vermilion Parish, LA. The negligence from our city is putting lives at risk, including my son’s, who could have been killed due to the lack of proper road maintenance.

The condition of our roads is not just an inconvenience; it’s a safety hazard that demands immediate attention. Patching up these holes is merely a temporary fix and does not address the underlying issue – the need for comprehensive road repairs. The constant patching leaves the road uneven and full of hazards, increasing the risk of accidents for everyone who travels this route.

The city owes it to its residents to invest in our infrastructure by undertaking thorough and sustainable repairs. Not only will proper maintenance prevent accidents, but it will also save costs in the long run. According to national statistics, well-maintained roads can significantly reduce vehicle damage costs and increase the safety of motorists.

We urge the Vermilion Parish authorities to allocate the necessary funds and resources to fix Roosevelt off Woodlawn Road properly. We deserve safe roads, where our children, families, and neighbors can travel without fear of accidents or injuries caused by negligence. It’s time for our city to show that it values the safety and well-being of its residents.

Please sign this petition to demand that the city take immediate action to repair Roosevelt off Woodlawn Road thoroughly. Let's come together to create a safer community for all.
