About resurfacing. The Village proactively resurfaces streets in order to improve their ride, maximize the useful life of the roadway, and reduce future maintenance costs. The resurfacing process takes multiple days, as it takes about one day each to...
- Grind (mill) the existing roadway surface.
- Repair the road base and utility structures underneath.
- Apply a coat of liquid asphalt prior to paving.
- Apply one layer (course) of roadway material.
- Apply a second layer of roadway material.
- Restore the edge of the roadway and final cleanup.
There may be non-working days in between as the Village's contractor works on other roads or due to inclement weather. Additionally, some concrete curbs, gutters, and sidewalks may also be repaired or replaced during the resurfacing process.
