Beginning on or about August 8, 2022, 8am- 4:30pm, roads in Hopewell Township will be under construction as part of the Township’s annual road maintenance program. The work is scheduled to be completed by September 5, 2022, weather permitting.
The work will proceed in two phases. The first phase will involve patching of distressed pavement; small and localized repairs to existing pavement.
The second phase will include either Chip Sealing or Micro Paving. Chip Sealing involves the application of liquid asphalt that is quickly covered with crushed stone. Micro Paving involves the application of a slightly thicker layer of liquid asphalt mixed with fine aggregate to form a slurry that is applied to the road surface. These processes have been used in the past to preserve many Hopewell Township roads.
During this work, there will be no on-street parking permitted. There will be restrictions on accessing your driveway while the materials cure. The restrictions will be short and last no more than ½ hour for Chip Seal and up to 2 hours for Micro Paving. Contractor personnel on-site will help direct you during these restrictions.
Roads will be open to emergency vehicles at all times. If you have special needs such as a wedding, large party, etc., please contact Asphalt Paving Systems.
Working with liquid asphalt is challenging. When wet it will stick to shoes, clothing, cars and paws. It is extremely difficult to remove. Please do not drive, walk or allow pets near any wet material. There will also be loose stone until the surface is cured and has been swept. Bicycle riding, walking and running will be challenging.
The Township and our paving contractor, Asphalt Paving Systems, thank you in advance for your cooperation during these much needed improvements.
