SEASONAL PAVING LIST


Streets Department Planned Paving Program for the 2013 Season

The Streets Department announces the 2013 planned paving and ADA curb replacement program for roadways funded by the City's Capital budget. The Department has two different ways of treating roadway surfaces. The one-step process known as micro-surfacing allows a service life extension for roadways. Micro-surfacing provides a resealed surface completed within 3 days, thereby minimizing the inconvenience of multiple street closings. For streets that require more base work we use a conventional paving method which mills off the top asphalt surface, preps and repairs utility manhole covers and any roadway base areas, then applies a new asphalt top surface. This paving process occurs in three stages over a 3 to 5 week period. Work will begin in June and continue through November.

STREETS DEPARTMENT REOPENS 15TH STREET BRIDGE
WEDNESDAY, MAY 15

Vehicle Weight Restriction Established

PHILADELPHIA - The 15th Street Bridge between Callowhill and Spring Garden Streets opened to vehicular traffic today, with a "three-ton, no trucks or bus weight restrictions," Streets Commissioner David J. Perri announced today. All trucks, buses and other heavy vehicles are required to detour to alternate travel routes for the entire length of the bridge.

The bridge was closed January 2013 due to severe deterioration to a section of the bridge. The Streets Department's Bridge Maintenance Unit re-enforced this section to strengthen the bridge.

The Streets Department thanks citizens for their patience and cooperation during this project.
