NATALBANY — Summertime is here and that means it is time for road work to kick off across Tangipahoa Parish.
Parish President Robby Miller said the parish will begin pavement preservation operations during the week of June 1.
In alternating years, the parish performs pavement preservation, a process by which high-traffic roadways are patched and sealed to extend the life of the road bed.
“The process has not only been effective in saving money for the parish, but it also allows Tangipahoa to stretch its road and bridge funds so that we can do more miles of overlay in alternating years,” Miller said.
Crews from Material Resources, Inc. will begin crack sealing and patching operations on the following roads during the week of June 1: Woodhaven Road, Randall Road, General Ott Road, Giluso Road, Booker II Road, North Thibodeaux Road, and Drude Road.
Motorists are asked to use alternate routes, if possible, while crews are working. Intermittent delays are possible during construction periods, and all work is weather-permitting.
