OAKLAND (KCBS) – Thousands of potholes are expected to be fixed in the coming weeks in Oakland, part of an annual blitz to fix city streets.

Crews on Thursday were filling potholes on 106th Avenue, the first of many roads to be repaired. “For the next seven weeks, each week, we’ll take one city council district and we’ll pave as many potholes as we can,” said Oakland Mayor Jean Quan. “Usually by the time we’re done, we’re up to 2,000-4,000.”
