Pothole spending and JCB PotholePro

21 April 2022

Your request & our response

  1. How much money your local authority has spent repairing potholes in the financial year 2021/22.

An estimated total sum of £130,673.00. This figure is approximate, and is based on multiplying the number of pothole repairs undertaken in 2021/22 by an average assumed cost per repair works order. It is possible only to provide a rough estimate because we pay our term maintenance contractor for repair works on a lump sum basis rather than through measurement of individual costs per order.

2. Have you made any use of a JCB PotholePro vehicle for your repairs or do you have plans to do so?

We have not made use of the JCB PotholePro vehicle to date and have no defined plans to do so.

3. If you have made use of a JCB PotholePro vehicle, or have plans to do so, please advise what savings (if any) have been achieved, or you expect to achieve.
