[Duluth, MN] After a record-breaking year of potholes, the City of Duluth has doubled the number of its pothole patching crews. The City now has a total of six crews that have divided the city in two. Three teams will tackle potholes to the east and three additional teams will tackle potholes to the west.
Crews have been hard at work responding to streets that have been reported through the City Street Maintenance and Snow Removal form for the last few weeks.
The City will also be highlighting a $5,000 grant that came from Domino’s Pizza as a part of their Paving for Pizza Program.
