When are they going to repave my street? When will they replace the streetlights? When will they fix the blocked drain near my house.

Here’s how to make the city of Wilmington aware of such problems:

Street maintenance

To report a pothole on a city-maintained street, call 910-341-7879. For a state or county-maintained road, call the N.C. DOT at 910-341-2250.

Residents can get more information on street and sidewalk maintenance and access a map of city-maintained streets at www.wilmingtonnc.gov/streets.

Drainage

For drainage requests or maintenance for a blocked storm drain, city residents should call the city’s stormwater division at 910-341-4646. Citizens can get more information and access a map of planned and completed capital projects throughout the city at www.wilmingtonnc.gov/stormwater.

Streetlights

City residents can request additional streetlights by contacting the city’s Traffic Engineering Division at 910-341-7888. Citizens can get more information on the city’s streetlights at www.wilmingtonnc.gov/traffic.

In addition, citizens can access maps for streetlights, street maintenance, parks and more at www.wilmingtonnc.gov/maps.

NOTE: Thanks to Malissa Talbert, the city’s Communications Manager, for this answer.
