Chip and seal places a coating of road oil on the existing city street followed by a layer of fine crushed rock. A roller is then run over the chips to embed some of them into the asphalt and hold the road oil in place. The layer of crushed chips including some loose chips remain on the street to prevent “bleeding” through of the oil to other surfaces, such as vehicles.

In areas where City crews are maintaining the roadway, motorists may expect delays due to lane restrictions and may want to consider using alternate routes. The City apologized for any inconvenience as they work to improve the streets in Sedalia.

For questions about streets or to report a pothole or other roadway problem, contact the Public Works Department at (660) 827-3000.
