SUPERIOR, Wis. (WRN) — Another pothole patrol is the books.
Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers grabbed a shovel for his final pothole patrol stop on Monday in Superior. The statewide tour has been an annual ritual for the Democratic governor, to highlight a campaign pledge to “fix the damn roads,” as he put it.
Evers, who said he’s gotten the hang of if after filling an estimated 80 potholes since the first tour in 2019, said there has been bipartisan support that has helped the state improve more than 9,600 miles of roads and 2,400 bridges since he took office.
