Road Resurfacing
To keep our roads in good shape and make them last longer, we are doing some resurfacing work this year. Resurfacing helps fix wear and tear and makes the roads smoother and safer to drive on. Depending on the condition of the road, different methods are used.
This year, we’re using two types of resurfacing:
Reclamite Treatment
This is a light surface treatment that helps seal small cracks and slow down aging. It doesn’t involve heavy construction and can extend the life of the road by 5 to 7 years before bigger repairs are needed.
Ramsey County is partnering with the City of Shoreview to complete reclamite treatments on select city streets. Visit the City of Shoreview’s website for more information, including which streets are scheduled for treatment.
July 6, weather permitting, work will begin and is expected to take two weeks to complete.
The first week crews will complete County Road B and South Shore Boulevard.
The second week crews will complete Hodgson Road, County Road F, and all City of Shoreview roadway segments.

Mill and Overlay
This method removes the top layer of old pavement and replaces it with new blacktop. It’s used when the road surface is worn out and the foundation underneath is still solid. This makes the road smoother and safer without the cost and time of completely rebuilding it.
