The City of Santa Fe’s Public Works Department will launch its annual Pothole Palooza from June 9 through June 13, 2025, with a focused, citywide effort to repair potholes. During this one-week initiative, all Streets Division staff will be fully dedicated to pothole repair, including working overtime shifts to ensure broad and timely coverage.

This intensive effort is designed to address high-priority potholes quickly and effectively, especially in light of recent rainfall, which has exacerbated road damage. Rainwater seeps into cracks, weakens pavement, and erodes the underlying soil, accelerating pothole formation and deterioration of existing ones.

In previous years, Pothole Palooza was held for two weeks. However, starting this year, the City is adopting a one-week format to lessen the burden on staff and avoid falling behind on other critical street maintenance duties. Despite the shorter timeframe, the City remains committed to high-impact results. Last year’s Pothole Palooza led to the repair of more than 1,000 potholes across Santa Fe.
