Street Resurfacing is a type of street maintenance and a recurring program by the City of Minneapolis. Resurfacing removes the top layer of asphalt pavement on a street and puts on a new layer of asphalt. This extends the life of the street between more expensive fixes. The asphalt pavement resurfacing is intended to last about 10 years.

 

Please follow posted detours and use caution in areas where work is being performed. For more information about street resurfacing projects in the City of Minneapolis, including a Frequently Asked Questions section, visit the City’s Street Resurfacing Program Page.

 

The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board appreciates the public's patience while our public infrastructure is repaired.
