This is a widening or an extension of the width of the road where there is no kerb. Within two years of reconstruction, there will be a further resurfacing, to ensure the investment (road) is protected by adequate waterproofing. Road reconstruction is only done when an assessment of the cost of the current repairs required and future year costs are higher than the reconstruction costs. This work is more extensive and can include building up the road or digging up and removal of parts of the road. These are done to ensure maximum value is achieved for the community and the roading asset. Prior to resurfacing, your street may undergo a number of different works to rectify minor faults and improve drainage. Think about it like giving your house a new coat of paint which will last about 10 years, it protects the road structure from moisture, but it doesn’t fix all faults.
