BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — From Chandler Street in Buffalo to Park Avenue in Lockport, potholes and bad roads are wreaking havoc on your cars. Certain factors are making it hard for cities and towns to fix these problems.
"We've seen an increase of about 30% in our paving contracts," said Michael Finn, Buffalo Commissioner of Public Works.
At the end of March, Finn told 7 News he was hopeful the state budget would include some help. The finalized proposal from Governor Kathy Hochul includes a $32.8 billion investment in transportation infrastructure.
"We're not just rebuilding our infrastructure overall, we're also adapting to climate change. Making our infrastructure more resilient," said Hochul.
