LOOK: How Bad Are Three Village's Roads?

With a new highway supervisor in tow, and roads chewed up by the elements, locals are getting vocal. But how bad is it?

Drive around a few roads in the Three Village area and the scene is the same: Asphalt crumbs, cracked road patches and gaping potholes that seem to be getting bigger with every freeze and thaw.

Take Stony Brook Road, for example, which gives drivers more than a bumpy ride due to its chewed up expanses. 

One commenter on Patch put it this way, asking newly elected highway chief Dan Losquadro what he plans to do about the situation:

"When I traverse these local roads I am appalled at what I witness, from the potholes that I continuously call the town to report , to the road signage that has been defaced and not cleaned up or replaced, and to the LACK of, or faded road striping markers that is an extreme hazard to everyone in the area. And let's not forget about the litter everywhere that decorates our otherwise beautiful 3 Village area. If Mr. Losquadro would address these issues, which should be a priority in the entire Town of Brookhaven, he would surely get my and other votes in the future. I hope this is what he signed up for to accomplish!! We'll see??"

But since there are many side roads we haven't driven down yet, let us know in the comments. Just how bad are the roads in your neighborhood? And if you have photos, share them above.

So, essentially that first residential home is being written off as the price of doing business.Read More There goes that property value. Other than as a professional residence, who would want to live by a driveway for that traffic? As for the entrance Village Automotive, that will bring even more traffic to an already busy intersection nearby. 25A is impassable/impossible in that area for large chunks of the day now.

The rezoning is for the acres of undeveloped residential land across from Ann Maries Farm stand,Read More extending down to the wooded area on 25A. A one way entrance would be placed by Village Automotive and a one way exit would come out on N. Country Rd. adjacent to the first residential house.

Can you tell us where this property is? An address or street name?

I the BOE and Union didn't allow the majority of the budget be spent on benefits and salaries maybeRead More there would be money left for supplies. With declining enrollment and cuts to programs for our kids they only ones making out are teachers and staff with too generous salaries and benefits. Vote no on Tuesday!

Seriously? We are asked to send in enough supplies per kid each year to supply 5 kids. Where does itRead More all go? It gets lost, thrown out, or ends up back in the students home via backpack. The problem is not the lack of supplies, but a lack of personal responsibility. But if we send in enough supplies each year for ten or fifteen students, then we might be able to avoid the underlying problem.

everyone should research what all the school administrators are raking in and the multple levels ofRead More staff that exists at TVCSD. It is beyond reasonable to have salaries at that level and multiple administrators and assistants and directors and assistant directors and chairman etc. Teachers earn their fair share!

Last year we lost 20 staff...this year we are losing over 50 meanwhile the remaining staff isRead More getting a 6% raise...the UNION is eating itself and ruining our school and the BOE is not dealing with the situation..the benefits are up nearly 13% this year...what do you think will happen next year? Another 60,70,80 to be laid off? My vote is NO!!!!
