The City of Erie is moving forward with its summer paving plan to smooth out city streets.<\/p>\n

Jason Sayers, the city\u2019s public works director, said the city is spending $2.5 million on this year\u2019s summer street paving plan.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tNearby stations hit $4.99 a gallon as gas continues to rise\t<\/a><\/p>\n

He said they\u2019re paving about 8 to 10 miles of road, split between Erie\u2019s east and west side.<\/p>\n

To figure out which streets to repair, they\u2019re using a mixture of technology, public input and in-person surveying to map out their plan.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the Erie winters we have and the freeze-thaw cycle, you have to keep up with this every year, so every year we at least try to put out $2 million dollars, sometimes upwards of $3 million, depending on our funding and some of the different programs we have going on each particular summer,\u201d said Sayers. <\/p>\n

Sayers said they\u2019ll be paving until the fall, and asks drivers to obey road closures and no parking signs if they see them out working. \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The City of Erie is moving forward with its summer paving plan to smooth out city streets.
