road repairs

The City of Palm Bay has approximately 15 lane miles of dirt roads that it is responsible for.  The Maintenance & Construction Division has developed and implemented a road grading program that provides for routine road grading maintenance on city maintained dirt roads. These dirt roads are inspected and graded as necessary on a weekly schedule.

In addition to the about road repair methods, the Maintenance & Construction Division of the Public Works Department is responsible for pothole repair on all City-maintained roadways. Typically, the pothole repair area is outlined on sound pavement that exceeds the dimensions of the failed area. The area is then cut and all debris, damaged asphalt, dirt and water are removed from the hole. A tack coat is applied and the hole filled with hot mix asphalt for the best quality and longest lasting repairs.Pothole repairs are scheduled by unit and on a complaint basis. Potholes on collector roads, such as Emerson Drive, Jupiter Blvd. and San Filippo Drive are handled on a priority basis.
