Pavement crack sealing on several roads around Mansfield has recently been completed by contractor, Boral Pty Ltd on behalf of Mansfield Shire Council on Wednesday 19 April.
The crack sealing process involves placing an adhesive sealant into cracks on the sealed road pavement surface, preventing the infiltration of moisture and non-compressible materials into the pavement, and reducing the risk of water damage and the formation of potholes.
The completed roads in Mansfield included:
Mayor Cr James Tehan said he is pleased to see these works complete, reducing the risk of damage to the road surface during wet weather.
“These road surface treatments are important to increase the life of our roads and maintain a smoother and safer journey for all road users. This process is less costly and time-consuming compared to a full reseal,” he said.
“Council values and appreciates community feedback as we continue to review and prioritise roads that require maintenance and upgrading such as these.”
