10:30 PM · Jul 30, 2020

(City of Roseburg) Roseburg OR – The City of Roseburg Public Works Department will be conducting pavement maintenance on a variety of streets on Monday, August 3, and Tuesday, August 4, 2020. The maintenance treatments will extend the useful life of the streets. City contractors will be applying slurry seals to the following street sections in Roseburg, weather permitting. August 3, 2020 · NE Russel Ave – From NE Stephens St to End. · NE Channon Ave – From NE Stephens St to NE Vine St. · NW Jefferson St – From NW Whipple Ave to NW Calkins Ave. · W Berdine St – From W Sharp Ave to W Gilbert Ave. · W Gilbert Ave – From W Berdine St to W Bodie St. · W Susan St – From W Sharp Ave to W Center St. · W Jay Ave – From Lookingglass Rd to W Broccoli St. · W Lorraine Ave – From W Winter Ridge Dr to W Broccoli St. August 4, 2020 · W Gilbert Ave – From W Bodie St to W Cardinal St. · W Bodie St – From W Gilbert Ave to W Sharp Ave. · W Cardinal St – From W Gilbert Ave to W Sharp Ave. · NW Beaumont Ave – From the cul-de-sac to NW Kline St. · NW Jefferson St – From NW Whipple Ave to NW Riverview Dr. · W Lorraine Ave – From W Indianola St to W Kenwood St. · W Jay Ave – From W Luellen Dr to W Kenwood St. · W Lorraine Ave – From Lookingglass Rd to W Winter Ridge Dr. In total, just under two miles of City streets will receive a slurry seal treatment. Advanced notice will be given to every residence prior to the scheduled start date. Residents, who park their vehicles on these streets, must remove their vehicles from the street so that crews can apply the slurry seals. Any vehicles found on the above-mentioned streets after the scheduled start date will be towed at the owner’s expense. Slurry seals are a thin layer of aggregate (very small rock) with an asphalt emulsifier applied to a paved surface. Slurry seals are applied in order to help preserve and protect the underlying pavement structure and provide a new driving surface. “Essentially, you can think of a slurry seal as sunscreen for asphalt,” says Public Works Director Brice Perkins. “This helps protect the pavement and provide a smooth surface for driving. Applying slurry seals also helps us achieve our goal of providing quality public infrastructure at the lowest life cycle cost.” For more information, please contact the City Public Works Department at 541-492-6730 or email pwd@cityofroseburg.org
