Chip sealing starts June 1; watch for flaggers, plan for delays

Summer brings chip sealing time in Chelan County.

When crews are chip sealing, motorists should expect minor traffic delays. Flaggers will be directing traffic, which will be at one lane. A pilot car may be used in busier areas.

Motorists are reminded to slow down in the work zone and on recently chip-sealed roads. Loose gravel may be on the roadway. Roads are typically broomed a day or two after a road is chip sealed to allow the roadway to cure.

During and after chip sealing, CCPW recommends:

  • No parking vehicles, trailers or RVs on the street.
  • Keep your speed under 20 mph for a few days.
  • Keep pets indoors or fenced in the yard for their safety.
  • Bicyclists and motorcyclists should use extra caution.

For a map of the roadways to be chip sealed, go to the Chelan County Public Works website. The chip sealing schedule relies heavily on weather conditions and performance of equipment and materials. Plans can change. To keep up on where the preservation crew is, follow its progress on the CCPW Facebook page.
