Bridgeport, Conn. (March 27, 2015) - As part of Bridgeport Mayor Bill Finch’s continued efforts to make Bridgeport better every day, public works crews have been repairing roads and fixing potholes throughout Bridgeport following an incredibly difficult winter that wreaked havoc on the city’s streets. So far this season, crews have already repaired nearly 2,000 potholes.'
Bridgeport has once again enlisted the Pot-Hole Killer, an innovative system that is quicker, safer and more environmentally friendly than traditional crew-based efforts to help repair roads in the Park City.
Along with the Pot-Hole Killer, Bridgeport is also using a Durapatcher, a pothole repair solution that uses spray injection technology. Durapatcher is a cost efficient and effective repair method that allows you to fill more potholes in a day with less labor.
