Montreal's Pothole Repair: Lessons Learned

Montreals inspector general is addressing pothole repair contract issues, with limited competition due to specific equipment requirements since 2015. The city faced a record number of potholes and failed bids, leading to privately negotiated deals for hand patching. City leaders are learning from the situation, aiming to predict costs better and boost competition. The city is investing in automated repair machines and forming new maintenance teams. The inspector general will monitor tenders in 2026 and issue a follow-up report.
