2025 City of Lincoln Resurfacing
Project
[September 17, 2025]
The 2025 City of Lincoln
Scarification and Oil and chip project will get underway beginning
Wednesday September 17, 2025. Please be on the lookout for temporary
no parking signs in your area and please do not park in the areas
posted with these signs. The contractor will start with the streets
that are going to be scarified, once this is complete the street
will be regraded and compacted. These streets will not be resurfaced
immediately, so residents should avoid driving on them if at all
possible. If they do, we recommend not exceeding 10 mph on these
streets. A primer oil will be applied 18 to 24 hours before these
streets are resurfaced and we highly recommend residents do not
drive on these areas unless absolutely necessary. If it is
unavoidable, we recommend not exceeding 5 mph. It would be very
likely that oil will transfer from tires to the vehicle and it may
also track onto other surfaces such as driveways and sidewalks. A
base coat of rock will be applied and then a second surface coat
will be applied to these streets and the other streets just
receiving a standard oil and chip. These are weather sensitive
operations so any rain could change the schedule.

Streets will
remain open unless crews are actively working. If anyone decides
to drive on this oil, they do so at their own risk. The City or
contractors will not be responsible for any damage caused by
doing so.
As always it is recommended that motorist and pedestrians alike
avoid these areas if possible. If you must travel in these areas
please use extreme caution.
Any questions or concerns, please contact the City of Lincoln
Street Department at 217-732-4655.
