Local Mechanics Raking it in with Pothole-related Repairs

flat tire tlsMechanics during the last few weeks sure aren’t complaining about business being slow – thanks to an historic pothole season.

One local mechanic says since Purim, his shop has performed over $30,000 in pothole-related repairs. The mechanic says they’ve been flooded with tire and rim damages, axle damages, and other pothole-related damages.

As earlier reported, the Mayor announced a new type of pothole-filling is coming to the streets of Lakewood, in hopes of ridding the roads of the mess winter left.

The new pothole-filling system, to be tested by the township for a couple of weeks, will reportedly keep patches in place for over three years, and only have a failure rate of approximately 10%.

The trucks have already begun work around town.

Just thinking out loutd… – is now the correct time to be testing it out. I think (hopefully) we should be done with the snow, etc.
