Officials Urging Drivers To Report Potholes

(From the Ohio Department of Transportation)

This weather is a petri dish for potholes.

Potholes form when precipitation seeps into cracks in the pavement. As temperatures drop, the trapped moisture freezes and expands. This freeze-thaw cycle weakens the pavement, eventually causing it to break apart and create potholes on the road. We fill those potholes! Well, the ones on our roads at least because we don’t maintain every road.
