Micro-surfacing is a preventative maintenance program designed to increase asset lifespan by re-sealing the road surface to prevent water infiltration, as well as provide a smoother, higher friction driving surface. The application of micro-surfacing is dependent on the age and condition of the road. A timely application of micro-surfacing is expected to add five (5) to seven (7) years to the roadway’s lifespan.
