Let's Fix Our Roads

Irmo's roads belong to three different agencies, and each one has its own way to report a pothole. Here's how to find the right one in under a minute.

  1. Look up your road to see who maintains it
  2. Report it to that agency
  3. Still not fixed? Let me know

Step 1 and 2

Find who maintains your road, then report it

Not sure which one? Start with the SCDOT Street Finder. If it says the road isn't a state road, check your county. Irmo is split between Lexington and Richland counties.

Make your report count

  • Be exact about the spot. Give the nearest address, intersection or landmark, and which lane.
  • Add a photo if the form allows it. Something in the frame for scale helps.
  • Describe the hazard. Depth, size, and whether it's damaging tires or causing swerving.
  • Save your confirmation number so you can follow up.

Step 3: still not fixed?

  • Give it a fair window. Agencies triage by danger, so a small pothole can take a while.
  • Then let me know. Send the location and your confirmation number, and I’ll follow up with the right agency.
  • Private lots like store parking lots belong to the property owner, not the town. I can still help connect you.
