2017 Urban Reseal Program
Goulburn Mulwaree Council is beginning the
annual urban road resealing program, with work scheduled to commence on Monday
4th December 2017 and be completed by Friday 22nd
December 2017, weather permitting.
Resurfacing or resealing roads is part of Council’s
ongoing asset preservation program designed to improve and restore the road
pavement. Prior to the sealing Council and contractors carry out maintenance
activities to assist with the longevity of the treatment, such as kerb and
gutter repairs, asphalt patching, crack sealing and removal of weeds from
gutters.
Each year a number of local roads require
resealing to preserve the lower foundations and extend their useful lifespan by
approximately 15 years.
Road resealing happens when the road pavement
is in good condition, but the surface has deteriorated to a point where it
requires intervention. It generally involves spraying hot bitumen over the
existing surface, quickly tipping a layer of stone on top and rolling the stone
into the bitumen. While Council appreciates this can be temporarily
inconvenient for residents, it is an asset preservation practice to prolong the
lifespan of one of our most expensive and important assets - road pavements.
Traffic
management measures will be in place during this time. This will include some
detours around the work site, although access to private property will be
maintained at all times. The work program should only see each street
restricted for 2-4 hours at a time. Residents will also be notified the day
prior to resealing works in their street, and Council requests that you refrain
from parking vehicles on the roadway during this time.
Whilst
measures will be taken to minimise any inconvenience, your cooperation will be
appreciated during these works.
If you
experience any problems whilst works are progressing please contact Chris
Brassel, Contractor Supervision & Inspection Officer, on 02 4823 4818.
