2018 Oil & Chip Street Maintenance Project

Project Status: 
Complete
Estimated Completion: 
Aug 2018
Estimated Cost: 
$224,878

The City of Urbana has contracted with Illiana Construction from Urbana, Illinois to perform street maintenance of select streets throughout the City of Urbana.

The work is scheduled to start Tuesday, July 31, 2018 and end Friday, August 17, 2018 weather permitting.

The City will post no parking signs to notify the public of the dates and times during which no parking will be allowed along the edge of the street.  Local traffic will be maintained as much as possible; however, depending on conditions streets may be closed for 15 to 30 minutes on the day of the work.

The project is funded with Local Gas Tax funds.  This cost-effective maintenance treatment is being applied to extend the service life of the pavement.

The contractor will be installing a layer of oil and a layer of small gray rock.  There will be some losse rock on the street after it has been placed and the City will sweep that up after the contractor is finished with their work.
