The Department of Transportation typically performs milling and resurfacing of roads between the hours of 9 p.m. and 5 a.m.
Giordano emphasized the importance of drivers safely operating their vehicles during and after the resurfacing process. The speed limit along these roads is 25 miles per hour, and it is even less in a school zone. Drivers must also show respect to pedestrians by stopping before crosswalks at intersections and giving them the right-of-way.
