WATCH: Cheyenne Mayor Goes to Work Patching Potholes
Cheyenne Mayor Patrick Collins on Thursday got a taste of what city crews deal with when he joined Street and Alley Manager Randy Hickman to patch potholes.
Collins and Hickman filled a concrete pothole at the intersection of W. 20th Street and Pioneer Avenue and numerous asphalt potholes along Snyder Avenue on the south side.
For the concrete they have a special bag of mix that bonds with the concrete and makes for a stable patch, said Collins. It was fascinating to watch the mix work.
