Council begins £1.1 million road resurface scheme
Telford & Wrekin Council are planning to resurface more than 70,000 square meters – the equivalent of 27 football pitches - worth of roads as part of a £1.1 million scheme starting at the end of this month
More than 20 sites across Telford and Wrekin, covering thousands of square meters will be patched and resurfaced as part on an extensive annual programme.
Surface dressing seals road surfaces, improving the texture and prolonging life by many years while patching involves filling holes or cracks within the surface.
Surface dressing has to be done during the summer months as the process requires warmer temperatures and relatively dry weather. It prevents roads from deteriorating due to traffic and weather as well as improving surface texture and takes a great deal of planning and co-ordination.
