What is Slurry Seal? Why does the Township use Slurry Seal?
Slurry Seal is a mix of small aggregate, emulsion, filler, and water applied with a truck mounted spreader box. Slurry applications correct small roadway deficiencies, provide a weather tight barrier, preserve asphalt pavement and improve skid resistance. Slurry Seal is a preventative maintenance product and extends the life of the asphalt pavement. The cost of Slurry is roughly one fourth the cost of an asphalt overlay. The Township has been using Slurry as a preventative maintenance product for more than 30 years.
