The City will remove part of the asphalt on the streets in these two areas. They will then overlay each street with a new layer of asphalt.

In this ongoing street maintenance program, we replace the top layer of asphalt pavement to extend the life of a street between larger reconstructions. The new pavement should last about 10 years.
Other work
There will be some other work done before resurfacing these streets:
- A minor amount of concrete curb and gutter replacement
- Some private utility work under the street
Following this work, we will resurface both of the streets.
