Road maintenance efforts are underway by the Public Works Department to address current road conditions along Appian Way (between Michael Drive towards Dalessi Drive), San Pablo Avenue (between Appian Way to Oak Ridge Road), and additional roads. This project will consist of a type of maintenance repair known as an asphalt dig out.

This maintenance project will begin August 26, 2024 – August 31,2024 between the hours of 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM and it is expected that this will cause travel time delays through the area, we advise that motorists plan accordingly. he work will consist of dig-outs. Please drive cautiously around the construction zone and obey all temporary traffic controls in place.

What is a Dig out?

A dig-out refers to the process of removing existing asphalt pavement, or sections of it, by excavation in order to repair or replace damaged asphalt surfaces. Asphalt dig-outs are commonly performed to address pavement issues such as potholes, cracks, or structural failures in the underlying base materials. Dig outs are used when the pavement has failed in localized areas, such as when the underlying support materials have disintegrated or lost their load-carrying capacity. This can happen due to age, weather effects, or heavy use.  Proper excavation and replacement are crucial to ensuring the longevity and safety of the repaired asphalt surface.
