ANNUAL STREET RESURFACING PROJECT

Phase 2 Annual Street Resurfacing Notice
Phase 2 Annual Street Resurfacing Notice_Spanish
PHASE 2

The City is currently working on streets that are moderately to significantly deteriorated with cracks and potholes by treating them with a robust two- and three-step slurry seal process for streets. These are streets that typically require an overlay treatment. This two- and three-step process involves multiple layers of asphalt slurry that help to fill, level, and create a more acceptable travel surface to the road at a significant reduction in price, when compared to traditional overlays. 

Approximately six miles of streets will be paved using the two- and three-step slurry process by June 2023. The list and map of streets to be resurfaced as part of Phase 2 can be seen below.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) - SLURRY SEAL

The City is resurfacing approximately 6 miles of streets from May 2023 through the end of June 2023. During this time, the City’s contractor will be shutting down sections of streets for roughly eight hours so that they can spread the slurry seal on the street surface and allow time for it to cure properly.
 

Here are some common questions about the Slurry Seal that is used to preserve streets that are in fair to good condition.

How is the Slurry Seal different than traditional asphalt paving?

With traditional asphalt paving, the top surface of the asphalt is ground away and a new asphalt surface is added. This is typically done on streets that have significant wear, cracking, and potholes. Slurry seal is used as a preservation treatment on streets that are in fair to good condition. It is ¼” coating that seals all cracks, preventing further deterioration and development of potholes. A drive driving surface is created by the slurry seal coat.

When is it safe to drive on the new surface?

Once the contractor has opened the street at the end of the workday, it is safe to drive. Until the contractor removes the barriers closing the streets, it is important that all pedestrians and motorists stay off the surface until it has properly cured.

The slurry seal looks rough and I can see imperfections in the surface like the wheel tracks from the contractors equipment. Is this how it will always look?

When the slurry seal lays down it shows the workmanship of the contractor for a few months. With time and especially when the summer months come along and the road surface starts to heat up, the material will settle and smooth out more as vehicles and street sweepers pass over the surface.

When will the lane markings and stop lines be repainted on the surface?

We anticipate that striping and marking of the roads will happen in June 2023.
