Development of potholes on Indian roads and streets after the onset of monsoons is a common phenomenon. Every year, there is a public outcry and newspapers are full of pictures showing potholed roads and pavements. Potholes killed 3,597 people in 2017, claiming about 10 lives daily! Besides inconvenience to motoring public and pedestrians, potholes also cause user delays, which cost money in terms of their time; extra fuel consumption when vehicles have to stop or go slowly; excessive wear and tear of vehicles with frequent repairs; and increased air pollution caused by vehicle emission due to slow or stopped traffic. Unfortunately, a vast majority of our highway engineers either do not repair the potholes at all or fill them temporarily with dirt and/or stones, which wash away during the next rain. They wrongly believe that potholes cannot be repaired permanently during the rainy season. They are unaware that a pothole patching mix is available in India, which can be used not only during the rainy season but also throughout the year. This report was conducted to study the Pothole repairing methods and to analyze them. In which we found seven methods to repair pothole which are widely using all over the world.
