2010 Anoka County Overlay Program

Overlay Map

Start Date: May 2010

End Date: September 2010

Closure Dates: None

The overlay program is used to restore paved road surfaces to add structural capacity, riding comfort and skid resistance which add to the road's safety. While newly overlaid roads are aesthetically pleasing, roads are not overlaid to improve appearance. Pavement deterioration is cumulative. Factors including weather, traffic impacts, frequency of maintenance etc., all contribute to a roads longevity. When a paved road reaches about 75% of its service life deterioration accelerates. If routine maintenance is not performed restoration costs are four to five times higher.
