2018 Paving Program

It is the time of year , once again , when Peters Township prepares to resurface a portion of their streets that are in need of rehabilitation . As in previous years , the roster of streets scheduled for resurfacing in 2018 is generally based on a revolving three-year plan generated from an in-house pavement management system . The pavement maintenance budget for 2018 is roughly $ 1.25 million and includes not only road resurfacing , but other maintenance practices such as our annual street rejuvenator / seal coating program and a crack sealing program . By selecting appropriate rehabilitation methodologies and using a combination of contractual and in-house paving by the Public Works Department , the Township hopes to resurface over 4.55 miles of streets , rejuvenate ten to fifteen miles of streets , and perform crack sealing on three to five miles of streets in 2018 . The tentative list of streets scheduled for 2018 resurfacing , budget permitting , is as follows : Street Name Start Paving End Paving
Bittersweet Circle E . McMurray Road House # 117 Bittersweet Circle Bittersweet Circle House # 184 Carol Drive Old Washington Road Terminus Franklin Drive Skyview Drive Locust Drive Hemlock Drive Sheffield Lane Cheshire Lane Hemlock Drive Cheshire Lane Stratford Drive
( Add Alternate Bid ) Lake Colony Drive Bebout Road Eaglebrooke Court McCombs Road House # 407 Venetia Road Old Washington Road Carol Drive Route 19 Sienna Trail Justabout Road Springdale Road
( In House , if time permits ) Sugar Camp Road Church Hill Road Township Line Sunset Lane Pleasantview Drive Terminus Turkeyfoot Road Church Hill Road McClelland Road
Bids for the road program are scheduled to be opened on April 2 . Drainage and preparatory work should begin in mid to late May with milling and resurfacing operations following shortly thereafter . Paving work is anticipated to be completed prior to the start of the new school year in late August to minimize conflicts with bus service . Affected residents will receive a general notification by the Township via U . S . mail detailing the work to be done on their street . Prior to the actual start of work on each street , the Contractor will be hand-delivering notices to each affected household outlining any special instructions regarding start dates , parking arrangements , and vehicle access . If you have any questions regarding this year ’ s paving program , please contact Mark Zemaitis , Director of Engineering , at 724.941.4180 .
