Hot Temperatures Cause Roads To Buckle

ARAPAHOE COUNTY, Colo. (CBS4) - This week's hot temperatures have damaged roads.

Crews had to do patch work along two sections of Parker Road on Thursday.

Work took place at both Belleview Avenue and Stroh Road.

The Colorado Department of Transportation says t he record-setting heat caused the pavement to buckle.

They cleaned up the broken concrete and replaced it with asphalt.

It's a temporary fix until they can put in the more permanent concrete again.
