Who would a citizen contact about a problem with the city roads?

Generally speaking a citizen who sees a road problem in their town or city should contact the mayor's office and have the complaint or suggestion passed on to the proper place in city government that handles road problems. In some instances a problem road belongs to a county in which the town is located. The complaint or suggestion should go the county's road department. If the road is a state highway, then the state's highway commission or other state office can be contacted.
