View Map of Locations Residents are asked to reduce speeds on roads that have recently been treated to help lessen the disturbance of the roadway.The Town utilizes surface treatment paving on many rural roads with low to medium traffic volumes as a more cost-effective and durable alternative to asphalt concrete paving. The maintenance of surface-treated roads occurs every 5-7 years between May and September. To learn more, visit the Road Maintenance webpage.For more information, please contact:
Micro sealing is a type of surface treatment designed to extend the life of existing asphalt roads. The sealant consists of an asphalt emulsion, mixed with aggregates and other additives. A thin layer of the mixture is spread evenly over the road surface, preventing moisture intrusion and degradation. Treated roads can generally be reopened to traffic within less than an hour.
