Road Repair

Occurring throughout a road’s lifecycle

Pothole Filling/Patching/Spray Injection

  • Repair methods that are used annually to patch holes or seal large cracks to prevent further deterioration of the road.
  • Several methods can be used including cold mix in low temperatures to infrared technology. 
  • Spray patching injects very fine aggregate with bitumen into large cracks. This method is used for larger cracks that can’t be targeted with crack sealing.  
  • The City maintains roads between major treatments like preservation and rehabilitation. This is a cost-effective option, usually 5% or less than the cost of resurfacing.

An objective of the City’s pavement and sidewalk management practice is to minimize investment and prolong asset life. This involves ongoing condition assessments and responding accordingly to various treatments. Please see below information related to the 2019 practices for pavement and sidewalk asset management:
