City of Rockford issued the following announcement on July 30.
The City of Rockford cape seal and micro-surface pavement preservation street surface treatments for the 2021 season are scheduled to begin on Monday. Pavement preservation is a best practice under asset management to align infrastructure maintenance and pavement lifecycle.
A cape seal is a two-part pavement preservation process that improves, preserves, and extends the useful service life of an existing street surface by 6-10 years.
Project Locations:
• N Main St. (Courtland St. to Lewis St.)
• Lewis St. (N Main to Northland Dr. NE)
• River St. (Bridge St. to W Division)
• Sigsbee St. (Lewis St. to E Main St.)
- Temporary on-street parking restrictions will be in place when work occurs. Please adhere to any signage postings for parking restrictions.
- The contractor will maintain the street to always allow for emergency vehicle access.
- Yard waste service in the affected areas will be postponed by one day but will otherwise continue in accordance with the regular yard waste schedule. Residents impacted by street construction must place yard waste bags between the sidewalk and roadway and only the night before scheduled pick up so that these items do not interfere with construction.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as important infrastructure is replaced and rehabilitated that will serve the community for the future.
