Various roads to receive single surface treatment June 13-24

June 9, 2022

Contractors retained by The County will be undertaking a single surface treatment application on various roads starting Monday, June 13 as part of the rural road preventative maintenance program. The work is expected to be complete by Friday, June 24.

The following roads will be affected and scheduled to be completed in this order:

  • Taylor Drive
  • Fenwood Crescent
  • Tripp Road
  • Davis Road
  • County Road 13 (County Road 8 to Civic Address 508)
  • Shannon Road (section south of Ridge Road)
  • Palmer-Burris Road
  • Hanthorn Street (Old Portage Road to County Road 3)
  • Old Orchard Road

Single surface treatment is a preventative maintenance tool that preserves and reinforces existing surface treated roads to extend their life expectancy.

It is constructed by spraying a uniform application of asphalt emulsion – which is a liquid asphalt cement emulsified in water – followed by a layer of cover aggregate.

Roads may appear to be granular while setting, but will continue to harden before taking on the final look of surface treatment. Warm weather and traffic will assist with setting the cover aggregate into the asphalt emulsion. Visit the County website to learn more about road rehabilitation and preventative maintenance.

If you have questions, contact the County at 613.476.2148 extension 1023, 613.962.9108 extension 1023, or email info@pecounty.on.ca.

Please note: The County of Prince Edward provides this information as a service to the general public. While we do our best to provide accurate information, construction projects and associated service disruptions are subject to change based on weather, road, traffic, and other uncontrollable conditions.
