Roads Division
The Roads Division was largely impacted by winter weather activities during the month of March. Approximately half of the month, the Roads personnel were either preparing for inclement weather or reacting to winter weather activities. This involved clearing snow and ice, clearing downed trees from the roadway, guardrail maintenance and clearing drains of dirt, mud and/or debris.
When the weather permitted, the Roads Division was involved in a variety of tasks, including patching water leak cuts, pothole patching, spraying the rights-of-way for weed clearance and starting our spring crack sealing program which began with sealing the utility cuts that were repaired.
Water leak patching locations:
- Deertrail
- Woodview Ct
- Sorrel Ct
Approximately 12 tons of asphalt and 900lbs of crackseal material were used in March.
