AKRON, Ohio — City of Akron road crews are using specialized Dura Patch vehicles this week to fix troublesome potholes that have popped up this season.
The city purchased two of the specialized trucks for $300,000 each.
The trucks use an emulsion and an aggregate similar to tar, which crews aim with a hose to quickly fill a pothole.
Patches aren’t just temporary.”It’s very durable. It lasts longer. This is a permanent fix for these potholes.
