The City is committed to rehabilitating existing elements of our road network  and constructing new roadways with the latest proven and sustainable methods. Our planning processes analyze opportunities for efficiencies with data collection, contractor procurement, shovel-ready design necessary for grants from upper levels of government, improved coordination between project stakeholders and improved communication.

Projects are selected based on a number of factors:

• existing long-term infrastructure plans;
• various master plans;
• condition and risk assessments, and;
• need for new road work to support development.

Rehabilitation techniques include:

• Crack sealing
• Surface treatment (tar and chip)
• Pavement preservation
• Asphalt replacement
