The 2026 Paved Roadways Project continues to make headway as we move through a busy spring construction season, with city administration reporting steady progress on pothole patching, pavement repairs, and larger capital road projects. Director of operations, Bevan Harleton presented an update on the project to city council during their regular meeting on Tuesday, highlighting gains made since the asphalt plant came online at the end of April. Repairs focus on major routes He said crews have completed roughly 700 pothole repairs so far this season, with work focused on arterial and collector roads using a “worst-first” approach. Under that approach, 37 excavation sites have been paved, restoring areas left with temporary surfaces following underground infrastructure and utility repair work. He also noted that an additional 50 locations have been heated and repaired via infrared patching at the time of his update to council.

Harlton added that the asphalt recycler is now being phased out for the season as plant-produced material takes over supply for city trucks.
