The City of Sarasota's annual street paving
project started this week and will continue
through January, with approximately 9 miles
of streets targeted for milling and resurfac-
ing, the city has announced.
Prior to work commencing in a neighbor-
hood, signs will be posted to provide specific
dates when crews will be in the area, a news
release says. Click here to see a map for the
tentative resurfacing schedule.
Hashay Drive, Hawthorne Street, Hillview
Street and Illehaw Drive were scheduled to
be paved this week.
Streets are slated for resurfacing based on
criteria established by an asset management
team within the Public Works Department,
the release explains. "Throughout the year,
crews use a scale of 1-100 to rate roads as
they drive around the city," the release points
out. Staff members also take residents' rec-
ommendations into consideration.
