Home Menu2022 Street Patching Program
Project Summary:
The Pavement Patching Program is an annual program which typically involves removing the top 2 inches of distressed and failing asphalt and replacing it with new, smooth, compacted material. Selected locations are usually much larger than a single pothole; roads with a significant level of localized surface deterioration that are otherwise functioning well (such as proper drainage) are targeted for this program. Removal is done by a grinding process. The asphalt grindings are kept as aggregate and used by the Street Division during alley maintenance operations. Roads that are patched under this program typically have a surface life extension of 5 - 8 years, making this cost-effective when compared to full resurfacing, which has an expected life of 15 years.
