Asphalt Maintenance
The City of Gainesville is rated among the best in the State and Country for the condition of its roadways. The Public Works Department works hard to insure that our City roadways are the best they can be by utilizing tax dollars effectively and efficiently.
The Asphalt Section has three primary maintenance functions:
 |
|
POTHOLE PATCHING
The Pothole Patch Crew patched 20,000 potholes this year. Approximately 300 of these were generated by citizen complaints and inspection. The rest were done by scheduled maintenance. |
 |
|
ROADWAY CONSTRUCTION
When the roadway integrity is affected by curb replacement, root damage, sinkholes and utility cut-ins, the Asphalt Cut-in Crew is deployed. This crew has more equipment and personnel to handle these larger volumes of material and work.
