A ‘pothole blitz’ saw thousands of fixes by a council during a 30-day period.
Lincolnshire County Council last month filled in more than 7,000 potholes which were blighting roads across the county.
Of these, 2,060 had been reported to the council.
Coun Richard Davies (Con), executive member for highways said: “We’re targeting the areas that will have the biggest improvement for the most road users and we’re going far beyond what’s reported to us in terms of numbers.
“I’m delighted that our positive improvements across the county are returning a real-world change for road users.
“We still have a lot of work to do, we are very aware of that, but we’re moving in the right direction and continuing on the right road.
“It’s a mammoth job across our 5,500 miles of mostly-rural roads network, but we have never shied away from the task at hand and will continue to work extremely hard for everyone who uses our roads to travel around Lincolnshire.”
