last time when it was repaired the asphalt was packed directly on top of the old surface so it easily breaks away. There is also some settlement in this segment of the road. Please remove the cracked asphalt and pack new one down to the gravel. Thanks a lot.
I am a storm drain volunteer for the Utility Department for Sussex Drive and Queensway from High St to Montclair and have been tracking broken asphalt pavement that might enter or block the storm drains and storm sewers by collecting broken pavement. I have collected a second load of broken pavement that is on the east/mail box side of my driveway at 2305 Sussex Dr. The pile weighs about 134 ponds could a City Street crew pick up the pile for recycling and reuse?
I have been collecting broken asphalt pavement from Sussex Dr, and from High St to Montclair along Queensway as an experiment for the Utility Department on reducing storm drain blockage on streets with significant slopes. I weighed the amount of debris collected since the start of the freeze-thaw cycle and the new pile is just short of 310 pounds on the east side of my driveway. Could this debris be picked up by a city crew for recycling?
I have been volunteering with the Utility Department keeping storm drains clear. Since fall I have been also removing broken asphalt pavement from Queensway to Montclair and from Sussex Dr to Montclair as an experiment to reduce pavement debris from obstructing storm drains. Once again I have accumulated enough debris for a crew to remove it for reuse in new pavement. I estimate there is about 150 pounds of material that I have now placed at the southeast end of our driveway. Thank you. Don Eggert
I have been volunteering to check and clear storm drains on Sussex Dr and Queensway from Hith St to Montclair. Freeze-thawing results on chuck holes and the asphalt debris have been an ongoing problem when they block the storm drains at the bottom of slopes. I collect this debris for disposal periodically by city crews, I have accumulated enough for another pickup at the bottom of my driveway east side.
Debris on court from storm 6/25/2024. Tree limbs and debris cleaned up from street, property, and adjacent areas
Light cycling on and off.
Crews have patched potholes on Montclair Ave within the last few weeks, but they missed an area that is on the edge of the roadway, next to the curb, near the southeast corner of Montclair, right near the intersection with Rock Creek. There are several holes that fill with water after a storm, leaving standing water that will encourage mosquito breeding. Please come back and fix this spot. Thanks, John
Montclair / Queensway intersection is in bad shape with potholes and crumbling asphalt.
The crib area in from of my house and 4 other parallel home next to me is badly chipped away and needs repaving. Our properties being the lowest on E Rock Creek always collect and get bad puddling and then ice and then more puddling, so the road has disintegrated including parts of the cement berm. I am aware that next week you will have a paving crew right above us on Queens Way, it would be great if they would then swing by here and do our repair. Thank you, Larry Groupe
