Metro Detroit road crews tackle potholes early amid winter freeze-thaw cycles

Metro Detroit's road crews are addressing potholes earlier than usual due to the winter freeze-thaw cycles that accelerate their formation. Crews across Wayne and Oakland counties are actively identifying and repairing potholes, focusing on both large holes and small cracks to prevent them from worsening. Residents are encouraged to report road hazards to expedite repairs, while drivers are reminded to exercise caution around repair sites. Despite the early onset of pothole season, public service teams are working diligently to stay ahead of the issue.
