WHEN: Starting on Monday, July 26, 2021
WHERE: Starting on the following roads in Pittsfield Township:
- Textile Rd between Maple Rd and US-12
Continuing the following roads in York and Pittsfield Townships:
- Willis Rd between US-23 and Crane Rd
- Crane Rd between Textile Rd and US-12
WHY: Preventative maintenance – fog seal
BACKGROUND: Starting on Monday, July 26, 2021, the Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) will begin preventative maintenance fog seal projects on sections of the following roads in Pittsfield Township: Textile Rd.
WCRC will also continue preventative maintenance fog seal projects on sections of the following roads in York and Pittsfield Township: Crane Rd and Willis Rd.
Fog seal is another thin layer of liquid asphalt placed on top of a recent chip seal that helps to seal in the chips and further protect the pavement.
The work on these roads is expected to be completed by the end of next week. However, all dates are tentative and subject to change due to weather conditions.
The work will be conducted under a combination of lane restrictions and daytime closures to allow the fog seal to cure. A contractor for WCRC will return to this area in a few weeks to place permanent pavement markings.
CONTACT: If you have any questions, please contact Ken Harris, superintendent of maintenance, (734) 327-6696 or via email at [email protected].
