Milton streets getting a facelift under ‘pavement rejuvenation project’

A “pavement rejuvenation” project is underway in Milton to extend the lifespan of city roads.

Roads normally need to be repaved every 10-15 years, but the city’s efforts using reclamite treatments are expected to extend road usage closer to 20-22 years.

According to the city, “Pavement rejuvenation is also a lot faster and less expensive -- estimated last year at less than a dollar per square yard, compared to waiting for the asphalt to fail and repaving at $16-20 a square yard.”
