Yes, BGE is required to return the road to the state that it was before their work.

That's good to know. They have clearly stopped their work, and the patch jobs they did are atrocious. Is DOT in contact with them? Have they been told their work is unacceptable? It really seems like they think they're done. Thanks for the reply, btw.

We are! We hold them to task if they don’t do a good job.

Thank you so much! Please let them know all the work they did across Fed Hill is garbage, and they need to come back and repave everything. Btw, it's awesome you're active on here. It's easy to feel like the Baltimore City government doesn't care about anyone, this gives me some hope.

Not sure if this is what's happening but when they did my street (3ish years ago) they initially patched holes which were left for weeks and then came back and paved when they were done with a majority of the neighborhood.

I assume it's a lot more money and work to replace street by street then it is to wait and do multiple streets at once.

Yeah, they seem to have been done for a couple months now.

Could just be bad timing. Been too cold or too wet for a while. Might be stuck until late spring at this point.

Yeah, you're probably right.

Asphalt plants have probably shut down for the season (can't lay asphalt when it's too cold), so you might be waiting until spring at this point.

If the road is not the way it’s supposed to be, you can also call the BG&E Customer Care Line at 1-800-685-0123. They will forward it to the correct team that handles pavement & restoration.
