Kimberley patchwork starts Wednesday

Kimberley residents can expect to see some roadwork throughout the community as crews patch potholes.

Work begins on Wednesday in the areas of Forest Crowne Gate, Morrison Road and Knighton Road.

Spray patching is a road maintenance technique that uses a specialized machine to clean, coat, and fill potholes and cracks in asphalt.

City staff say it’s the most cost-effective and efficient method.

The work is expected to wrap up by Friday.

Loose gravel will remain around the patched areas for a few days to allow for proper setting.

City staff say street sweeping in those areas will occur once the patches have had enough time to set.
