Studies showed the sand, in the past, was causing more problems to the roads, and to the water runoff. He says the other reason is because the city has a plan in place to constantly fix roads as soon as problems are reported. Well send a crew out. We have a pothole repair team.

Gabrielle road damage from winter storms is costing carolina taxpayers a bundle. Wyff news 4 investigates tim waller has obtained the latest damage claims from the state d. O. T. Tim gabby, potholes are the biggest culprit when it comes to costing state taxpayers. Last year alone, the Insurance Reserve Fund paid nearly 1 million for bent rims and blown tires.

Tim with auto repair shops bracing for a new batch of problems. There are a lot of roads in South Carolina, so money is definitely something that needs to come from a budget to fix them. Tim state officials are quick to point out, not all the money paid out for damage claims last year was from pothole damage. Some of those damages were from Manhole Covers and drains. But in 2015, potholes represented the vast majority of damage claims paid out by the nigel . Nigel thanks, tim.

Sometimes, it may seem like we are being overly cautious, but youd rather be overly cautious than make a mistake and allow somebody to get hurt, either on a bus, or parents get their children to school. Aly another reason . Finances. If gcs starts shutting some schools for bad weather and not others, it means more operating and personnel costs. The other issue is, parents with children at different schools. What do you do for a family to say, ok, your Elementary School child, because that school is here, can go to school, but your middle school child, because that school is here, they have to go. Aly according to brotherton, many students and teachers travel to different cities for school.
