The pothole killer has arrived in Lakewood, and will remain in town for approximately eight weeks.
The pothole killer machine can quickly fill the holes with hot patches even during the winter, giving the fillers a lifespan of approximate 44-48 months.
According to Public Works officials, last year’s patches have had a success rate of over 90%.
Only roads within the township’s jurisdiction are being treated by the township-leased machine. State and County roads are covered by their respective jurisdictions.

Oak between New Hampshire and Albert Ave and Albert Ave between Oak and Salem
Video sped up!! How long does it really take?
90% success rate? … 44-48 months? … pfft!
Most of them are a bumpy mess when filled and quite a number of them are already worn down just 12 months or so since being filled last year.
Have you noticed a traffic increase steadily every year..that could have something to do with the increased wear & tear of everything..including the potholes
i guess they never came down ridge avenue from park to sommerset.
JBW is 100% right, and, surprise !!, the twsp is 100% wrong. These killers aren’t killers at all. They’re a temporary fix, and I do mean temporary. Some of our roads look like a moonscape. Weld on those hubcaps, ppl !!!
You make it sound like Mashiach just arrived! 🙂
Just got a lovely flat tire today, courtesy of a gaping pothole, corner of Park and Rt 88.
$100 for a new tire. Zol Zein a Kaparah…
How about Williams street end to end especially at the corner by James ONCE AGAIN that street was done last year so much for 44-48 months
