I have family in Louisville and visit on a regular basis and have seen the issues firsthand. The microtrenching has caused and will continue to cause damage to the streets. The rubber sealant is commonly free from the trench and potholes form quickly. These are fixed by tax dollars and there is not a quick fix short of repaving every street.

The community here isn’t digging on Google trying to innovate. The anger comes from a highly successful company taking a risk, seeing it fail, and just peacing out leaving others to clean up the mess.
