GREEN RIVER — Work has begun on the cape seal project in Green River and several streets will be closed in the next two to three weeks.
Green River Engineer Andy Hooten said R and D Sweeping from Rock Springs is currently doing the first of three phases of the project that will affect 26 streets.
Phase one is patching work on the streets and once that is complete, the second phase is putting down a scrub seal, which fills the cracks, followed by a slurry seal. The project is similar to chip seal.
Residents on each street will be asked to clear the street once phase two begins. Hooten said the city hopes to have the project completed by the end of the month.
Advanced Paving and Construction is the main contractor. The Green River City Council awarded a $673,000 contract back in May, using funds from the expired 6th penny.
Approximately 5.8 miles of streets will be rehabilitated. Hooten said the City believes the project will give streets several more years of useful life.
Hooten said the streets will be closed for several hours. The following streets will be impacted:
