Slurry Seal Project Information

Welcome to the Slurry Seal Project Webpage for 2024. The project will consist of asphalt patching and the application of a slurry seal to the existing asphalt pavement. 

A slurry seal is a low-cost preventative maintenance treatment used to extend the life of a street in good condition and address minor defects. A slurry seal is a ½” layer applied on top of the existing asphalt surface by a paver and is a mixture of asphalt oil, small rock and other additives. The slurry seal process is very fast and streets are typically open to traffic within a few hours after application.

Please view the map below to see the areas that will be slurry sealed in 2024.

Please see Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for the Slurry Seal Project below and if you have additional questions, please contact one of the team members listed or email Justin Horn at Justin.horn@siouxfalls.gov
