Chip seal project begins Aug. 29 on Emsley/Live Oak
County crews will begin work TODAY (August 29) on a project to chip seal Emsley Drive and Live Oak Drive (east from Crown to Emsley).
Crews will be on scene to help direct traffic during the work, but we suggest taking alternate routes if you don't live on one of those streets. Please pardon the mess in the meantime as we work to make Willow Park better for you!

"Chipseal (also chip seal or chip and seal) is a pavement surface treatment that combines one or more layer(s) of asphalt with one or more layer(s) of fine aggregate. In the United States, chipseals are typically used on rural roads carrying lower traffic volumes, and the process is often referred to as asphaltic surface treatment. This type of surface has a variety of other names including tar-seal[1] or tarseal,[2] tar and chip, sprayed seal[3] or surface dressing.[4]" Wikipedia
