Boral's spray sealing crew will be back in Whyalla next week as Council’s road sealing program continues to roll out.
The crew were here at the beginning of the month and completed the spray seal of 22 sections of roads including 1.5kms of Gulfview Drive.
Council’s Senior Projects Manager, Thomas Spirat, said that spray seal roads are chosen as an option to asphalt as they can last up to 20 years given the right circumstances.
“The idea is to get maximum value for the rate payers’ dollar to maintain a community service level the community expects and can afford based on the rates it pays” Mr Spirat said.
“The $14.4m three-year roadworks renewal program, which started this financial year, is one of the biggest undertaken by Council in recent times and will result in 43.8km of works over 40 roads in the next three years.
“This program allows Council to stay on pace with the continual road resurfacing, kerbing, pavement patching, asphalt and spray sealing required in the city and outlying areas.”
“Roadworks is a rolling program throughout the city and the region that never ends,” Mr Spirat said.
The crew will re-commence spray-sealing from Monday 27 April until Saturday 9 May.
Various traffic restrictions will be in place with motorists and pedestrians asked to take care and obey all signs and instructions.
Boral have contacted all residents who are directly affected by the works.
Council and Boral would like to thank everyone in advance for their patience.
