Chip seal is an effective way to extend the life of street pavement, lasting five to six years. Crews apply liquid asphalt and small stone chips, then roll over it.
Please do not park on these streets during work hours; vehicles may be towed.
No road closures are in place at this time; however, vehicular and pedestrian traffic in the area should be aware of construction activity and follow posted signs. We appreciate everyone’s patience during this and all work.
