street maintenance
Fixing public roads
Street maintenance is the ongoing work of keeping public roads, sidewalks, and related infrastructure in usable condition.
This includes patching potholes, repaving worn surfaces, clearing debris, repairing curbs and gutters, and maintaining drainage systems.
Municipalities typically have street maintenance departments or contract the work out, and the quality of such upkeep varies widely by jurisdiction and funding.
The city's street maintenance budget was cut again this year.
