DOT Will Resurface 17 Miles Of Streets
Fresh pavement is coming to more than 17 miles of streets in Woodhaven this spring.
Project Woodhaven posted on its website a Department of Transportation (DOT) listing of Woodhaven roadways scheduled to be repaved through June. Most of the streets are residential blocks, and work will be conducted during daytime hours.
One main artery on the list is Park Lane South between Forest Parkway andWoodhaven Boulevard.
Street resurfacing occurs in two stages. First, DOT crews mill, or strip, the existing pavement off the roadway, utilizing a large scarifying machine. A short time thereafter- generally within one to three weeks-a DOT crew installs the new asphalt.
The DOT will place notices of impending resurfacing work on each affected street days prior to resurfacing. Parking is prohibited during scheduled street resurfacing; all vehicles found parked on the block can and will be towed away at the owner’s expense.
All scheduled resurfacing work is weather permitting and may be rescheduled at the last minute due to inclement weather. Call the city’s 311 hotline to check for updates.
