Normally, the city repairs 5,000 potholes a month or 250 a day.
Transportation and Capital Improvements crews committed to work extra hours in April to repair some 7,500 potholes.
April was chosen for the "blitz" project because of late winter and early spring rains that contribute to asphalt breakdown.
Potholes are defined as holes in the street no larger than 3 feet by 3 feet.
It takes between 10 and 30 minutes for a crew to repair a pothole.
Crews will be canvassing all 10 of the city's districts to look for potholes.
If you see a pothole, you can call 311 and report it. The city says it will have it fixed within two days.
