Machine which fixes potholes 'in minutes' trialled

A machine which manufacturers claim can fix a patch in the road "in eight minutes" is being trialled by a council.

The JCB Pothole Pro costs around £165,000 and can repair an area the size of a tennis court every day.

It has already been used by Staffordshire County Council and is now one of a few machines being tested by Gloucestershire County Council.
