PETALING JAYA: The Works Ministry has given its commitment to fix potholes on federal roads within 24 hours of receiving a complaint, as the issue of road maintenance in Malaysia continues to be parodied.

The Ministry said that under the Zeropothole Campaign, the patching of potholes or temporary repairs for federal roads would be conducted within 24 hours, while permanent repairs will be done in three days as per the “Federal Road Maintenance” contract.

“When the width of the hole is up to 1,000mm, it will require the part of the road to be cut before it is patched,” it said, adding that holes with a width of more than 1000mm will be treated as"pavement failure". Saying that it took the safety of road users seriously, the Ministry said the road network in Malaysia is 254,477.563km long.

The Ministry added that the allocation for Marris was increased up to 20% or RM50mil, whichever is lower. It added that based on JKR’s monitoring, they had detected and fixed almost 200,000 holes on roads, while for the first half of this year, a total of 64,000 holes had been fixed.
