Next, I came across a #Mamdani #pothole patrol! In the first picture, a man fills a pothole w asphalt from the truck while another sets up orange barrels. Then I missed him using a broom w super long bristles to sweep the asphalt over the hole & begin tamping it down. Next, he gets the watering can filled w liquid tar, while a third guy tamps down the #asphalt. As he pours tar around the outside edge, the truck starts moving! Poof they disappear, dragging barrels behind.
Quite the spectacle.
