Construction Notifications: South Whidbey Chip Seal Application

Chip Seal Application

Chip Seal is one of the pavement preservation tools used by Island County to extend the life of our pavement and keep our roads in good condition. 

The following roads are scheduled for Chip Seal July 22, 2024. 

Monday 7/22/2024    Lone Lake Rd

 


Chip Seal application includes an emulsion layer, closely followed by a gravel layer (the 'chip'). The gravel is then pressed into the base using a roller to compact the emulsion and gravel into a singular paved surface. 

 If used as a top layer or resurfacing measure to asphalt, it helps keep the existing pavement in good condition.
