CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (KCRG) – A new feature on the Iowa 511 app lets you report a road hazard directly to the DOT.

You can choose from three main categories – traffic (like crashes or standstill traffic), road hazards (potholes or debris), and flooding.

The app also allows drivers to report an incident hands-free with Siri, if you have iOS. The Iowa DOT reminds drivers that if you don’t have hands-free access, to have a passenger make a report.

Reporting is limited to Iowa DOT-managed roadways (Interstates, US and State highways). The app won’t accept reports on roads the DOT does not maintain.

You can also make a report by calling 511.
