Chip seal and fog seal applications will be applied to several highways in the Winner area beginning Monday (July 10, 2023).
The fog seal process will happen within a few days after the chip seal process is completed. For all projects, traffic will be reduced to one lane and guided through the project with the use of flaggers and a pilot car. A delay of up to 15 minutes can be expected while traveling through the work area during daytime hours.
Loose gravel will be present for a period of 36 to 72 hours after each day’s chip seal application. During this time frame, traffic should travel at 40 mph or the posted speed limit if it is less than 40 mph. The permanent pavement markings are scheduled to be applied within 14 days of completion of the chip and fog seal projects.
The overall completion date for the $8 million project is Oct. 13, 2023.
