'Self-healing roads' could help fix pothole problem, scientists say


A senior lecturer at Swansea University told Sky News it was a "complex process" but that the aim was to "stimulate" materials to close cracks by themselves.

Potholes could soon heal themselves, according to a team of researchers.

Or is that not what they mean?
