While permanent lane closures are not anticipated for the work, drivers and pedestrians may still experience delays and should plan accordingly.
“The purpose of this surface treatment work is to extend the useful life of the roads, as well as to protect pavements from the damaging effects of water and natural weathering,” Public Works officials said in a statement. “Current shelter-in-place and social distancing protocol will be observed.”
Other communities set to have chip seal applied to roads from July 7 through Aug. 31, include Byron, Brentwood, Franklin Canyon, Orinda and Lafayette.
