Corner Brook Jim Parsons says this is what happens when there is wet weather and water gets into the pavement through cracks, freezes, and melts again causing potholes.
The weather has included some warm temperatures lately and the forecast isn’t calling for much snow. Next week’s temperatures are expected to be around 1 or 2 degrees with night time lows around minus 1. Corner Brook Jim Parsons says there is usually a time every January when we get all seasons in one day. He says the reality of living in climate change has led to specific guidelines with development in the city, like insisting on high back curbs. Meanwhile, the lack of snow also means potholes are being noticed more often. Parsons says this is what happens when there is wet weather and water gets into the pavement through cracks, freezes, and melts again causing potholes. Once the city receives a complaint or concern about potholes, they are marked right away and repairs are made quickly.
