.New technology will be used to fill potholes, says Minister

Public Works Minister Gopal Bhargava has said that new technology will be used for repairing potholes on roads in the state. With this technique, better quality work can be done in less time. This technique will be implemented as a pilot project in 7 districts of the state in the first phase.

Public Works Minister Gopal Bhargava has said that due to rain and traffic of overloaded vehicles, potholes form on the roads. Road repairing work is done continuously with quality, but the time taken for repair work and its quality are questioned. The Public Works Department has decided to adopt new modern techniques of jet puncture, velocity puncture and infrared for repairing potholes on roads. He said that before implementing the infrared recycling technology, jet puncture technology and velocity puncture repair technology, a detailed study has been done by the senior technical officers of the department. In this technique no waste material is generated during operation. With this work can be done in all seasons including monsoon.
