Project overview

We resurfaced 54th St. E. from 28th Ave. S. to Hiawatha Ave. and 57th St. E. from 35W to 28th Ave. S.

In this ongoing street maintenance program, we replace the top layer of asphalt pavement to extend the life of a street between larger reconstructions. The new pavement should last about 10 years.
