Motorists should be alert for prime coat installation along Lake Street

Weather permitting, the contractor plans to apply a bituminous prime coat on the Lake Street pavement on Monday, July 16th. This is a petroleum-based material, which until it has had time to cure, is very sticky and difficult to remove. Therefore, please exercise caution and travel very slowly when driving on this material.

Please pay close attention to the orange construction signs marked “Fresh Oil”. These signs will go up along the job site prior to placing the bituminous prime coat.
