The first two weeks of August means road maintenance in Cody, as the City of Cody’s Streets Division plans to chip city roads in and around downtown.
The City of Cody has released a schedule for extensive chip sealing throughout the community. According to their schedule, the work begins on Monday, August 2, and will continue until Wednesday, August 11.
Chip seal is a pavement surface treatment that combines one or more layer(s) of asphalt with one or more layer(s) of fine aggregate. In the United States, chip seals are typically used on rural roads carrying lower traffic volumes.
Chip sealing is cheaper than resurfacing an asphalt concrete or a Portland cement concrete pavement, but not as long-lasting.
The following city streets are scheduled for chip sealing over the next two weeks. During this time, all vehicles must be removed from the street or they will be towed.
