How Bad Are The Potholes On Your Street?

Larkspur City Council during Wednesday's meeting will try to prioritize projects to improve city streets.

The Larkspur City Council is going to take a hard look at ways to improve your commute.

Still stinging from the Metropolitan Transporation Commission's 2012 report that ranked Larkspur's streets among the worst in the Bay Area, city leaders are trying to figure out the next step toward smoothing out some of the bumpy roads.

One major artery, Dohery Drive, got a major makeover last year and plans are in the works to improve the Alexandar Street and Bon Air bridges. There are still several miles of residential streets in need of repair, according to reports.
