Commercial asset supplier Dawsongroup has already bought 11 JCB Pothole Pros \u2013 but all are now out on long-term hire with councils up and down the country, with more urgently needed.<\/p>\n
Demand for the machines is huge, especially given the Asphalt Industry Alliance\u2019s (AIA) Annual Local Authority Road Maintenance survey estimating that there are a record \u00a314 billion worth of outstanding road repairs in England and Wales \u2013 or a nine-year backlog.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
“We only bought our first JCB Pothole Pro under a year ago and the response has been staggering, with the whole of the current fleet now out on hire. We have placed this additional order simply to keep up with demand.<\/span>“<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n
Glen Carruther <\/strong>| Dawsongroup | emc Managing Director<\/span><\/p>\nJCB Municipalities General Manager Ben Rawding said: \u201cIt\u2019s great to see the success that Dawsongroup is enjoying with the Pothole Pro. More and more local authorities, and the contractors working on their behalf, are recognising that the Pothole Pro is the best way to fix Britain\u2019s roads quickly and permanently, first time. It is now easier than ever for UK authorities to get a JCB Pothole Pro on to their network, whether it\u2019s in a city or in a rural county and the public will now really start to see their presence on the roads and streets around the UK.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tests show the JCB Pothole Pro can complete a pothole repair in less than eight minutes, four times quicker than standard methods and equivalent to 700 potholes per month. With a 40km\/h travel speed, the machine can also rapidly relocate between sites without additional transport costs. The JCB Pothole Pro is a unique 3-in-1 machine, cutting out the damaged surface, cropping the edges and cleaning the hole, ensuring a permanent fix.<\/p>\n
Dawsongroup | emc is JCB\u2019s official rental partner for the Pothole Pro and the additional machines will be supplied through dealer TC Harrison JCB. Dawsongroup | emc, previously known as Dawsongroup | sweepers, is part of a global group of companies committed to providing an extensive product range, and first-class customer service across the supply chain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
