The work will include applying the asphalt surface treatment and placing temporary pavement markings.
The contractor will begin setting traffic control at 7 am. Temporary traffic control and flaggers will be present to direct vehicles through the
work zones and maintain traffic flow; traffic will be reduced to single lanes in both directions during paving. Residences and businesses will
be notified if access to driveways will be restricted while work is performed. On-street parking in work zones will be prohibited. Any vehicles, or equipment, left on the street on the day paving is scheduled may be towed at the owners expense.
Microsurfacing is a method of pavement surface treatment which prolongs the serviceability of streets by creating a moisture-resistant
barrier while increasing the rideability. This process has been
successfully used in Salina for many years.
