How we deal with potholes in Staffordshire
Staffordshire County Council prioritise all potholes so that those which pose the biggest risk to motorists are repaired by either the next day if category 1 or within 7 days if classed as category 2.
The teams have currently improved the turnaround times for both category 1 and category 2 defects.
Most defects are identified by our inspectors and repairs are scheduled based on their priority. The crews use a range of techniques to repair potholes depending on location and road make-up.
On busier roads, temporary repairs are sometimes necessary to allow plans to be put in place to manage traffic and to minimise both safety risk and inconvenience for motorists until this can be done.
Defects classed as category 3, which is the lowest category, can take up to 90 days to repair.
