Notice Concerning Road Defects & Claims for Damage

Pursuant to the Massachusetts General Laws, the Town of Mansfield has a reasonable opportunity to fix potholes, trenches, road hazards etc. once it is reported to the Highway Division. Prior to the report, the Town is not liable to reimburse costs for damage to vehicles, people, or property damaged by an unreported road defect. The Highway Division makes every effort to find these road defects before they cause damage, but potholes can “bloom” overnight, especially during the early winter and early spring.

Potholes

Please email to report Potholes, or call 508-261-7335 to report any road defect.
