Street Maintenance


Oxford News

As part of our ongoing street maintenance program, we have ProSeal out of Wichita coming to town next week to complete reclamite work on the south side of town.

You may remember this process from last year when we treated the northeast part of town. While the work takes several days to complete, streets are only closed for part of each day.

So, what is reclamite and why do we do it? Reclamite is a pavement preservation treatment that helps restore oils and flexibility to asphalt as it ages. Think of it like conditioner for your streets—it helps prevent cracking, slows down wear and tear, and extends the life of the pavement. This type of preventative maintenance helps us protect our streets and avoid more costly repairs in the future.

Today, the ProSeal team is in town placing door hangers on homes in the south end of town. These hangers will explain what day your street is scheduled for work and ask that no vehicles be parked on the street that day to help the process move smoothly.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we continue working to maintain and improve our streets!
