This road work does disrupt drivers and, in some cases, requires roads to be temporarily closed.

When a street is closed for a surface treatment, construction workers will allow police cars, fire engines and ambulances responding to emergencies to drive through the work zone.

This surface treatment is applied to access and subdivision roads in urban areas to prevent moisture from infiltrating a road's subgrade.

These roads are structurally sound and do not need reinforcement.

Emulsified oil and finely crushed aggregate are premixed on a truck and then applied to the road surface.

This treatment requires closing the road for one day to allow curing before the road can reopen to traffic.

Door hangers will be used to alert residents before work begins on their street. Residents should watch for a door hanger providing seven days notice, followed by a second door hanger 24-48 hours before application.

Please note that some maps also show rubberized asphalt cape seals that will be done the same area. Public Works is providing this extra information so residents can be aware of related work being done in their area.

The treatment consists of two steps. In the first step, an asphalt rubber binder, consisting of paving asphalt, oil and crumb rubber from ground-up used tires and natural rubber, is applied to the road, followed by a layer of crushed rock. The rock, which is pre-coated with an asphalt binder, is pressed into the asphalt-oil-rubber mix using rollers.

The second step, typically done 1-2 weeks later, is applying a slurry seal to further preserve the surface. This is a one-day process that requires closing the road.

Door hangers will be used to alert residents before work begins on their street. Residents should watch for a door hanger providing seven days notice, followed by a second door hanger 24-48 hours before application.

Chip seal is used to help seal the surface and prevent moisture from damaging roads. Each area is completed within 1 - 3 days.

Roads will not be closed, but you may experience temporary traffic delays. Watch for loose gravel and fresh oil signs and please drive slowly through work zones.

Similar to the Summer Road Preservation projects, the Hot Mix Asphalt overlays is a surface treatment for structural reinforcement on arterial and collector roads in both urban and rural areas,. Surface defects and irregularities are repaired prior to adding a new layer of hot mix asphalt. View the project page for more information.

Similar to Hot Mix Asphalt overlays, a thin lift is a surface treatment of asphalt that is applied to subdivisions or access roads that have surface irregularities but remain structurally sound. This paving evens the road surface and corrects some drainage issues. It provides a more modest treatment on less heavily used roads than a standard overlay.

In preparation for summer road work, residents sometimes need to prune their vegetation so construction vehicles can get close to the curb.

In addition, vegetation needs to be trimmed to improve traffic visibility and remove sidewalk or pedestrian obstructions.

Homeowners are responsible for pruning and maintaining their vegetation, including debris disposal.

All low-hanging material needs to be trimmed to provide 14 feet of vertical clearance from the top of the curb and 8 feet of clearance from the full width of the sidewalk.

Bushes, shrubs and other low vegetation also need to be trimmed so they don’t hang into the street.

If residents do not trim their vegetation, county road crews will cut it. This work will be done for free, but it will not be done to a landscape quality desired by many residents.

For this reason, residents are encouraged to trim their vegetation.
