I live in Minnesota just west of Minneapolis.Minnesota (and other northern states) have a huge problem with potholes in the spring. Of course the DOT just says "it's the thawing and re-freezing" So I contacted the states director of transportation to ask what was the solution. He said they're "working on" some solutions! Well...here's one I pointed out. Helsinki Finland has virtally the same winter weather as Minneapolis but they have virtually no pothole problem. Why? They design their road bases TWICE as deep as Minnesota. It of course costs more but in the long run is cheaper. The Minnesota DOT sent and engineering team to Finland last year to find out what the Finns were doing and hopefully begin to use their input. I've got another solution---put roads out to bid as design/build with a 15 year enforceable warranty from the builder (complete with performance bond) and I suspect you'd soon find out that pothole free roads can be built.
