Chip Seal Construction Update

To receive 2nd chip seal:

  • TWP RD 490 BETWEEN RGE RD 124 & RGE RD 120
  • RGE RD 120 BETWEEN TWP RD 490 & NORTH OF THE COLONY ENTERANCE
  • 49 STREET IN HOLDEN
  • RGE RD 161A BETWEEN HWY 14 & HWY 855

There will be many loose rocks after the second chip seal layer is applied and speed limits will continue to be reduced on these roads until the final sweep is complete.

During this construction period, parts of the road may be closed for crew safety. Please use alternative routes; detours will be clearly marked. If you must drive through construction zones, proceed with caution (local traffic only). Beaver County's goal is to provide a healthy, injury free work environment for all employees, contractors, visitors and general public. Already this year we have had people exceeding the posted speed limit through our construction zones, endangering staff, contractors and the public.

There are potential hazards to the public and vehicles during the construction process. This can include heavy machinery, dust or mud, road material such as gravel, asphalt coatings and rock chips.

We apologize for the inconvenience that road maintenance and upgrading causes, but the same roads that receive the most traffic also need the most maintenance. Thank-you for your patience and understanding during construction. If you have any questions, please call the Beaver County Service centre at 780-663-3730.
