Road Repair

Weather permitting on this Thursday, Nov 30, 2017, a contractor will be sealing the largest cracks in roads around Glenmore. This work is part of the GCA annual road maintenance program. This operation can be quite dusty as the cracks are cleaned prior to applying a very hot liquid sealant . For SAFETY reasons, please stay clear of the work. Depending on temperatures it may take several hours for the sealant to set; so it will be coated with fine gravel. Please try to avoid driving or walking on this work as it will likely coat your tires or shoes with a sticky black asphalt type substance until it is well set.
