Upcoming Chip Sealing in Baker City

By Garrett Christensen on Thursday, August 11th, 2022 in More Top Stories Northeastern Oregon News

BAKER CITY – (Release from the Baker City Public Works Department) Beginning August 15, 2022, the Baker City Public Works Department will be chip sealing a number of city streets. It is expected that this work will last for four days. The chip seal process extends the life of a street by restoring vital asphalt pavement components that are lost through the aging and oxidation process. By sealing the street, moisture is unable to penetrate below the asphalt surface. A list of the streets to be treated as well as map showing the street locations for the 2022 project is attached.
