Street Work Around New Monterey, June 10-19, 2015
Street maintenance and repairs, funded by the Measure P one-cent increase in the sales tax, are underway in the City of Monterey. June 10-19, slurry seal will be applied to streets in the neighborhoods and will impact some major roads including: David Avenue from Divisadero to Grace, Prescott Street from Divisadero to Taylor, Foam Street from Lighthouse to Cannery Row, and Munras from Soledad to Alameda.
A slurry seal is a thin maintenance treatment consisting of a mixture of asphalt emulsions, graded aggregates, mineral fillers, water and other additives. All street work is dependent on weather conditions and temperatures, and schedules may shift as a result.
Anyone living, working or commuting in an area scheduled for street improvements may be affected in the following ways: on-street parking may be restricted; streets may be closed and detours may be in place; sidewalks at intersections may be closed; and road work in a neighborhood could stop between the first phase of spot repairs to distressed streets and the second phase of slurry/paving work.
