Drivers across Long Island know the problem well: potholes that rattle suspensions, damage tires and force motorists to swerve.

Now, there is at least a bit of good news.

The New York State Department of Transportation told News 12 it plans to spend more than $100 million this year to repave some of the busiest and roughest state roads on Long Island.

According to the DOT, a large stretch of Sunrise Highway will be repaved, from the Nassau–Queens border east to Lindenhurst. Crews will also work on sections of the Sunrise Highway service road in Babylon and West Islip.

Other projects include Hempstead Turnpike from the Meadowbrook State Parkway to Route 110, portions of Jericho Turnpike in Commack and Smithtown, and Route 110 from Sunrise Highway to just south of the Long Island Expressway.

Some drivers say the investment is a step in the right direction.

Still, many roads that drivers say are in rough shape did not make the list.

On Route 112 just north of Middle Country Road in Coram, potholes are so severe that some drivers cross the double yellow line to avoid them.

In East Farmingdale, a large pothole on Milbar Boulevard has grown big enough to block an entire lane of traffic.

Milbar Boulevard is a Town of Babylon road. Town officials say the pothole will be repaired on Wednesday.
