The following roads and areas are scheduled to receive asphalt paving this summer:
- Power Street from Lock Road to Highway 33
- Old Wooler Road from County Road 5 to Stacey Road
- Smithfield bridge
- Frankford Road from Scotts Church Road to Wallbridge Road
- Wallbridge-Loyalist Road from Frankford Road to Vermilyea Road
- Foxboro-Stirling Road from Marsh Hill Road to Wallbridge-Loyalist Road
Power Street and Old Wooler Road paving is scheduled to begin the week of June 2. Smithfield bridge paving is scheduled to begin late June. Frankford Road, Wallbridge-Loyalist Road and Foxboro-Stirling Road paving is scheduled to begin in July.
Asphalt paving is used in high-traffic areas and provides a smooth, durable and noise-reducing surface.
Motorists can expect temporary traffic delays on roads receiving rural surface treatment or asphalt paving.
