AGENDA ITEM DESCRIPTION
Preventive maintenance of streets should be performed every three to five years. Without preventive maintenance, pavement deteriorates more quickly and is vulnerable to loss of fines, raveling, surface cracking, rutting and potholes. This type of damage is not only expensive to repair, but also requires additional downtime while repairs are made.
Application of slurry seal to streets is a cost-effective way to help preserve and significantly extend the life of the pavement by protecting it from the effects of aging and the environment. The contractor will apply a polymer-modified asphalt product along with small aggregate, which will add a new riding surface to the pavement in addition to adding years to the pavement life.
This item will be presented by William P. Fay, Public Works Director.
