The City of Twin Falls will begin annual street resurfacing starting the week of July 27, weather permitting. This essential infrastructure maintenance, carried out by city contractor Boswell Asphalt Paving Solutions Inc., is the most cost-efficient method to extend the lifespan of city streets while also enhancing road quality.
This year’s City of Twin Falls seal coat project work will focus on Zone 6, or north-central Twin Falls, which is shown on the provided map below.
Residents should anticipate road work lasting between 45 to 60 days from the start date; however, individual streets will be resurfaced quickly, typically within 48 hours. The primary method of repair will be chip sealing, which is a cost-effective and durable pavement treatment.
Chip sealing applies a thin layer of asphalt emulsion followed by a layer of small aggregate rock, or chips, which are then compacted. This process seals the pavement, prevents water penetration, and provides a new wearing surface. While highly effective, residents should be aware of the following:
Loose gravel: There will be loose gravel on the road surface for a period after application. Drivers should reduce their speed to prevent dislodged chips from damaging vehicles or properties.
Dust: Dust may be present, particularly during the initial sweeping phases.
Temporary lane closures/traffic delays: Expect temporary lane closures, flaggers, and minor traffic delays in active work zones. Please follow all posted signs and instructions from traffic control personnel.
Parking restrictions: Temporary parking restrictions may be in place on affected streets. Please adhere to all signage to ensure smooth operations.
The City of Twin Falls encourages all drivers to exercise caution when driving through construction zones. Further updates and detailed schedules will be provided closer to the project's start date via the City of Twin Falls website TFID.ORG and social media channels.
