2025 Local Access Grind & Overlay
Project Number: 2025044
Status: Complete
Overview
Several streets will undergo grind and overlay (milling and resurfacing) in the upcoming construction season. These improvements target areas with deteriorated asphalt, enhancing ride quality and extending pavement life.
Locations
- Sinto: Hamilton to Superior
- Queen: Crestline to Stone
- Magnolia: Pacific to Sprague
- 20th/McClellan: Bernard to 19th
- Christmas Tree/Rockwood Pine
- Upton: A to Nettleton
- Elm: Central to Francis
Key Objectives
- Road Rehabilitation: Remove the top layer of damaged asphalt (milling) and apply new asphalt.
- Structural Improvements: Level sunken areas, fix cracks, and ensure manholes match final road grade.
- Extended Pavement Life: Provide an improved, more durable driving surface.
Project Scope
The main activities within this project include:
Four-Step Method:
- Structure Lowering: Manholes, stormwater, and sewer structures lowered.
- Milling: Remove damaged or worn asphalt.
- Structure Reset: Raise manholes and utility fixtures to the new asphalt elevation.
- Overlay: Apply new asphalt layer for a safe, smooth surface.
Funding
- Project Cost: $1,569,695
- Sources: Various local and state roadway maintenance programs
Community Impact
Grinding and overlay work will cause temporary closures and detours, but the end result is a safer, longer-lasting road surface. Residents are encouraged to follow detour signs and monitor traffic updates.
Environmental & Regulatory Compliance
All milling and paving activities will comply with local air quality and stormwater regulations.
