 What hours of the day will the work occur?

  • Work hours will be from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. 
  • Lane closures are allowed between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.

How will this work affect my commute?

 

Resurfacing activities will require temporary lane closures.  Drivers should anticipate delays and are encouraged to use alternate routes around these work areas while construction is underwayWarning signs will be posted in advance of construction areas to inform motorists of lane closures.

Will parking be allowed on the streets?

Due to the nature of the project, parking will be restricted on streets where work is scheduled.  "No Parking" signs will be posted on each street 3 days prior to the work.  The posted signs will state the date and times when parking will be restricted.  Vehicles parked in areas where work is scheduled will be towed at the owner's expense. 

Will driveways be accessible?

Residents and local traffic will be allowed on the street while the slurry seal work is underway.  However, there may be very short periods of time when driveway access will be restricted while the slurry seal is being placed on the road. 

Access into and out of adjacent shopping areas and business centers will also remain open throughout construction except for brief periods of time  when work is in progress directly fronting driveways.

How will garbage collection be handled?

If your normal trash pickup is scheduled on the same day as the pavement work, you can leave your trash containers out on the curb or street as you normally would.  The contractor will coordinate their work with the garbage collectors to ensure that you do not experience an interruption in service.

What exactly is a Slurry Seal?

A slurry seal is a type of treatment we apply to the streets to improve the driving surface and to protect it from further deterioration.  The treatment basically involves the placement of an asphalt emulsion over the pavement.  The street is typically closed off to parking and traffic for a period of two hours to allow the emulsion to set.  Once the emulsion has set, the work is complete and the street is reopened to traffic and parking. 

Is there anything I can do to make this project a success?

Yes, there are actually a few things you can do:

  • Given the uncertainties that arise during street construction, we ask for your understanding when the scheduling of the work must be revised.  We recognize that the lack of parking and the traffic delays are an inconvenience and we will work to minimize their impact to the extent we can.
  • Towing someone's car is not something we enjoy doing.  In order to perform the street work, we request that you park off the street or in some other convenient area during the days when work is scheduled as indicated by the posted signs.
  • While we try our best to keep everyone informed, we may not always be able to reach everyone.  We appreciate your efforts to keep your neighbors and visiting guests informed of the work that will take place and especially of the parking restrictions.
  • Your cooperation is integral to the success of this project.  We thank you in advance!
