Potholes can by caused by the constant stress of regular traffic or by the action of water which freezes beneath the road surface and expands to cause damage.
The factors to be taken into account include size, exact location (carriageway or footway), and depth of pothole. In addition, the type of traffic use, speed and volume, road alignment and visibility, and also position in relation to the road width are considered. Potholes on the highway are repaired in accordance with the highways safety inspection manual guidelines.
