Major street repair scheduled to begin in late summer throughout City
Work for the City of Leavenworth’s pavement management program is scheduled to begin in August. The 2023 budget invests $1.8 million into major repairs of city streets.
Work includes three phases:
1) Mill and overlay, in which 2” of driving surface is scraped away or “milled” from the road and replaced with a 2-inch asphalt overlay.
2) Crack sealing and microsurfacing, in which thin surface material is added to the top of the driving surface.
3) Replacement of one City-owned parking lot is done each year. In 2022, the City replaced and repaired the Leavenworth Public Library parking lot. In 2023, the lot scheduled for replacement is on the east side of City Hall. Work will include tearing out concrete and adding new storm drainage, landscaping and repaving lot.
