City working on spring road problems

The melting ice and snow has motorists driving around pot holes again.

 

Deputy Mayor Penny Byer says the City is working on them: "Public Works has their cold mix in, and that is to fill in those pot holes. It's not a premanent fix but it fills them in. Trouble is they have to wait for it to warm up just a touch before it's effective. By the sounds of the weather, the projection is they'll be able to start doing that on Monday". 

 

If anyone sees a pothole they’re encouraged to call Public Works at 204-677-7970 so that they can add it onto their list.

 

As for sitting water on roards, Wayne Koverksy from Public Works says some catch bases are frozen preventing water from draining. He says they have an action plan in place to defrost the catch bases, which will allow for drainage.
