    🚧 Street Treatment Alert:

    Reclamite Coming to the Northeast Side Starting May 12


    Oxford News

    Weather permitting, beginning Monday, May 12, Proseal will begin applying Reclamite, a rejuvenating street treatment, to roads in the northeast part of town.

    You might be wondering—what is Reclamite? πŸ€”
    Reclamite is a restorative treatment that acts like a spa day for streets. It’s a pink liquid that penetrates the pavement, working deep within the asphalt to restore flexibility and protect the surface from future cracking. Think of it as a mix between sunscreen and moisturizer—except it's for your road! πŸ›£οΈπŸ§΄

    This treatment is designed to extend the life of our streets, improving driving conditions and reducing the need for more costly repairs down the line. It’s a proactive step to keep our roads safe, smooth, and strong.

    What Residents Can Expect:

    πŸ—“οΈ Door Hangers: Proseal crews will place door hangers on homes in the areas scheduled for treatment. These will include dates and times for when specific streets will be treated.

    πŸ—ΊοΈ Map Access: A project map is available showing the treatment schedule for each street in the northeast quadrant. You can find it below this story.

    πŸš— Street Access & Parking:
    To ensure the treatment works properly and to keep crews safe:

    • Please move all vehicles off the street before the scheduled treatment.

    • Avoid running sprinklers the night before or the day of treatment, as excess moisture can interfere with the application process.

    • Expect temporary road closures lasting just a few hours on treatment days.
