WHEN: Starting on Wednesday, August 17, 2022
WHERE: – N. Territorial Rd between Mast Rd and county line in Webster, Northfield and Salem Townships
– 7 Mile Rd between E. Shore Dr and Earhart Rd in Northfield Township
WHY: Preventative maintenance – fog seal
BACKGROUND: Starting on Wednesday, August 17, 2022, the Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) will begin preventative maintenance fog seal projects on N. Territorial Rd between Mast Rd and the county line in Webster, Northfield and Salem Townships and 7 Mile Rd between E. Shore Dr and Earhart Rd in Northfield Township.
The work on these roads is expected to take three days to complete. However, all dates are tentative and subject to change due to weather conditions.
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 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].
