Frustration is mounting for drivers who rely on Route 22 in North White Plains, where potholes and deteriorating pavement are making daily commutes both dangerous and costly.

Josh Egert, an Armonk resident, says he travels the roadway every weekday on his way to the North White Plains Metro-North station and has watched conditions steadily worsen.

“Dangerous. Frustrating,” Egert said. “The fact that it’s gotten to this condition is truly shocking. I can’t believe somebody hasn’t done something about this sooner.”

Egert says the situation became so severe that he contacted State Sen. Shelley Mayer — something he had never done before.

Mayer, who represents the area, agrees the roadway needs significant attention.

“This road is a mess,” she said, adding that the Hudson Valley has historically been underfunded for road repairs relative to its infrastructure needs. She says she has been pushing for a full repaving of Route 22 for years.

The Road Doctor, expert Peter Nardone, says simple pothole fixes are no longer enough.

“You’re down into the subgrade,” Nardone said. “They need constructive surgery — milling and paving.”

Residents say the poor road conditions are not only a safety hazard but also a financial burden, with some drivers reporting blown tires.

News 12 reached out to the New York State Department of Transportation for comment and was still awaiting a response as of Saturday afternoon.
