The road resurfacing works continue this week. Most of the asphalt has been laid and I am sure if you have used the road, you can feel the difference.
We are now ready to move to the next stage of the Bush Road which is applying the road paint.
Just so the public is aware, we cannot resurface the road and put the road markings immediately afterward. We must give some time for the asphalt to cure so that the paint is not sucked into the new road when it is put down.
For the remainder of this week, Bush road will be closed to vehicular traffic, in stages, from 8 pm until 6 AM, while the markings are placed. When the paint is administered there is a 4-6 hour period for it to cure before cars can pass on it. We hereby ask the cooperation of residents, particularly those on the affected side roads to pay attention so we don’t end up with situations where we see tire marks through the fresh paint.
Doran thanked all those who continue to work hard to get this project done. This morning, I want to, recognize my staff who also spend late nights and early mornings on location supervising this project. I also want to say thank you to the public for your cooperation thus far as well. Despite some trying to be negative and political by trying to associate this project with the recent Royal visit, I believe it is evident now that it was not and that we are simply carrying out the yearly scheduled plan.
Just a quick reminder to a very small group. The resurfaced roads feel nice but they are not race tracks. Please take your time and drive normally. There are others using the roads and we do not want the satisfaction of the new road feel to tarnished by accidents.
