  • We've doubled our volume of materials we use to repair potholes and are carrying out larger-scale fixes where possible
  • Our highways teams now operate from three depots across ÖйúPÕ¾ so we can get to defects quicker
  • We're trialling new video and AI technology to better detect potholes and new machinery to speed up repairs
  • We'll increase our teams during the winter so potholes can be repaired quicker
