Slurry seal is a preventative maintenance technique used to prolong the life of asphalt concrete surfacing. As streets begin showing wear and stress cracking, it is important to seal the cracks to keep water from getting under the roadway pavement. Slurry consists of a sand /oil mixture which seals cracks and provides a new uniform wearing surface. Forty -three streets (as shown on the Location Map - Attachment 1) were slurry sealed as part of the 2013 Annual Slurry Seal Program. The total slurry seal area was approximately 1.5 million square feet. Staff has reviewed the work as part of Contract No. 13 -09, 2013 Annual Slurry Seal Program, and determined the work is complete.
