The 12 pothole-riddled Stoke-on-Trent roads to be repaired this week
Highways crews will target a number of battered city roads this week - as the war on potholes continues. Stoke-on-Trent City Council has released details of where workers and the JCB Pothole Pro will be as the local authority looks to fix the Potteries' roads.
The local authority has set out a vision to repair 6,000 potholes in the next six months. That came on the back of the council having to shell out £371,914 in compensation to pothole-damaged cars over a four-year period.
This week and crews will be working night and day across various locations. Some will be wrapped up on the same day while others are longer - including a two-week overnight project on Festival Park's Ridgehouse Drive.
