Street repairs in the neighborhoods of Glendale, Maspeth, Middle Village, and Ridgewood have already begun this month for day and night time operating hours, according to Queens Community Board 5 (CB5).
CB 5 first shared the Department of Transportation’s notification of day and night resurfacing in the district with QNS and the community board was recently able to share the exact dates for when milling will take place in the district.
According to the DOT, milling allows the paving process to begin by removing the top layer of asphalt from a roadway. Residents should expect the most noisy conditions on the affected roads and neighborhoods temporarily.
To take a closer look at the streets being milled during the day, refer to the created Google map showing the streets that will undergo milling work.
