After trying out several new methods of filling up potholes such as geo-polymer and rapid hardening concrete, the BMC has now decided to opt for an old technology—reactive asphalt, named midas touch, which can be used even during rain. The civic body had earlier used this method in 2015. 

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation has floated a tender to appoint a contractor to repair potholes on city roads with reactive asphalt, an Austrian technology, at a cost of Rs 2 crore for a period of 15 months.
