A pothole on my concrete street was recently repaired with asphalt. Why wasn’t the repair made with concrete?
When the Street Department receives a pothole request, the maintenance crew chief investigates to determine the nature and extent of the problem. If the problem needs immediate attention or can be improved with the placement of asphalt, the Street Department will make a temporary asphalt repair. As the department develops its annual infrastructure repair program, those locations where temporary repairs have been made will be evaluated to determine their priority for permanent concrete repairs.
