As more cars hit each pothole, they begin to grow in size.

Denver Public Works has had crews out locating and patching the pesky potholes, nevertheless many more still exist out there, and they are taking a toll on cars and patience.

Many 9NEWS viewers sent in reports about potholes on Wednesday.

The areas we heard the most about were on Wadsworth Boulevard between 64th and 68th, the ramp headed on to I-70 westbound near Dahlia, I-25 near 6th Avenue, Colfax Avenue between Colorado Boulevard and Peoria Street, several blocks up and down Emerson Street, the section of Quincy Avenue between Sheridan and Lowell Boulevard, and some viewers told us to avoid Park Meadows Drive at County Line Road.

One viewer wrote: “Driving on Emerson between I-25 and Speer is like driving in a Third World country.”

Another wrote of the I-70 onramp at Dahlia: “Potholes is not an accurate enough description for this stretch of road, it’s more like a pot-ravine.”

Another e-mail was titled “Tire-eating pit from hell.” That viewer wrote: “A large pothole just north of 6th Street on York, just before the Cherry Creek area, ate one of my tires yesterday morning on the way to work.”
