MoDOT crews continue to address potholes throughout the state. Area engineer Brian Untiedt says the pothole season has begun in earnest following the recent extreme cold snap, snow, and then the warmer weather.

Untiedt says filling the potholes is a process.

He says safety is a top priority.

In 2020 MoDOT spent 18 million dollars filling more than 750 thousand potholes.
