The Town of Milton’s asphalt sealing program begins this week and will run until the month of August.

Asphalt sealing is done to enhance the performance of the road’s surface which lowers lifecycle service costs.

As a result, subcontractor Superior Road Products will be applying an asphalt seal to several streets in the community.

Residents are advised that they may experience a short interruption to driveway access, however, crew members will be able to assist.

Additionally, they are advised to follow all signs, keep children and pets out of treated areas to avoid tracking into houses, drive slowly (5km) and use caution when driving on loose sand.

Should residents accidentally enter a freshly treated area that has not been sanded, the sealer can be removed from a vehicle with a pressure washer and degreaser soap.

Sand cover will be swept up within one week after sealing and material tracked on driveways will weather off within a few weeks.
