UPDATE: Fahrner Asphalt Sealers has announced that the sealing project scheduled for September 13th through 17th has been canceled and will be rescheduled for May of 2022.

FAHRNER ASPHALT SEALERS will be sealing your road between September 13th through September 17th.

Work will be performed on your road on the days indicated above sometime between the hours of 7:00 am and 7:00 pm. Due to the number of roads scheduled, we do not know the exact time your road will be done.

“NO PARKING SIGNS” will be placed on the roads to be sealed. Signs will be removed when the project is complete.

The Township has determined this is a very economical surface treatment that prolongs the life of the Town’s Streets by reducing the pavement deterioration caused by weathering. Timely preventative maintenance like this prevents costly street reconstruction projects in the future. We realize the inconvenience caused by limiting access to your road, but this will be brief. Please understand that the inconvenience at this time is very small compared to what would later be required if this treatment was not applied. With your cooperation, it will be possible for the Town’s Contractor to complete the work quickly and with minimum inconvenience.

Chip Seal Aggregate is applied by using a thin layer of heated Asphalt Emulsion (oil) which is sprayed over the entire road surface and then covered by a thin layer of fractured Aggregate. The Aggregate is rolled or pressed onto the oil layer many times with pneumatic tired rollers. Vehicular traffic is allowed immediately onto the Aggregate after the rolling has been completed. This process may last for about (30) minutes in any one spot.

Once the road has been open, it is important for you to drive slowly and avoid any sharp turns or quick stops for about 7 to 10 days. Please be cautious when operating a motorcycle, bicycle, scooter and skateboard.

Most of the loose Aggregate will be SWEPT & VACUUMED up to 10 days after the rolling has been completed. Some loose Aggregate may remain on the street after the sweeping and vacuuming has been performed. Please be aware you may track some residual loose Aggregate onto your driveway and into your house during this period.
