Update at 11:25 a.m. — The pothole has been filled, VDOT reports.
At least a half dozen cars suffered flat tires after hitting a big pothole on southbound I-395 this morning.
The pothole is located in the left lane between the 14th Street Bridge and the exit for Route 1, according to VDOT spokeswoman Jennifer McCord.
“Our contractor is en route right now and will be repairing it ASAP,” McCord said in an email.
Arlington police assisted a number of the disabled motorists.
