The City of Nampa’s Street Division will begin chip sealing streets Mon., June 1, 2020 and it is estimated to be completed by early August.

Chip sealing is a common, cost effective, pavement maintenance practice that extends pavement life and improves driving surface. Chip sealing is about one-fourth to one-fifth the cost of a conventional asphalt overlay. 

This year, eight arterial road sections and 19 subdivisions will be chip sealed. Arterials will be chip sealed before subdivisions with the first arterial road being Greenhurst Rd. from Midland Blvd. to Lake Ave. followed by W. Iowa Ave. from Midland Blvd. to Midway Rd. A complete list is located below; see attached brochure for map. Staff hopes to complete chipping, fog sealing, paint and thermoplastic applications by early August.

Important reminders for drivers and residents:

• The speed zone in chip zones areas is 20 mph.
• Please help keep workers safe.  Be mindful of crews working in chip seal areas.
• Parking on streets during the chip seal process is prohibited from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Once signage is removed, street parking may be resumed. Every attempt will be made to notify owners of vehicles parked in the right-of-way prior to towing.

Along with standard safety practices, City staff will also be practicing prevention measures relating to COVID-19. Any sick individuals will remain home, physical distancing will be observed whenever possible, protective masks will be made available to staff and extra precautions will be taken pertaining to vehicle use. We ask the public to please practice physical distancing if interacting with any staff.

The Street Division website will be updated with work progress, along with any weather-related delays, at cityofnampa.us/chipseal. For more information, please call 208-565-5262 or email projects@cityofnampa.us.
