Curb Repair
Curbs not only make a roadway safer for vehicles, but they also help reduce flooding and stormwater issues. If you notice a section of curb has deteriorated, let us know.
Pot Hole or Street Repair
Raymore Public Works strives to repair potholes as soon as possible.
During inclement weather, temporary repair materials known as cold mix are used. Thus, there can be repeat occurrences in the same location until weather allows for a permanent repair using materials known as hot mix.
When leaving a message on the Pothole Hotline, 816-331-2377, please leave the exact location of the hole, the nearest cross street, and your name and phone number so that we may contact you if we have problems locating the hole.
Sidewalk Repair
Sidewalks not only connect our homes and neighborhoods, but provide a safe walkway for our residents. Let us know if you see a segment of sidewalk that needs attention.

If you notice a street light has gone out or is not working properly, you can submit a request to have it repaired. As part of your request, please include the nearest address and location information so our contracted repair crew can have the necessary information.
