Summer Slurry Seal Street work Complete!

All street closures for Tigard's Slurry Seal project have been completed! At about 4 p.m. Monday, the contractor removed the last ‘ROAD CLOSED - FRESH OIL’ sign opening up the last street to be slurry sealed this year.

This year, the project included about 2 million square feet of slurry seal, which covered about 12 miles of Tigard streets, at a total cost of about $265,000. The cost to overlay this many miles of street with new pavement would cost taxpayers over $2 million.


Tigard's Traffic Engineer Mike McCarthy offered a big THANK YOU!!! to all the residents and workers who rearranged their schedules to work around the street closures necessary for this project.
