May 16, 2023
The Chemung County Executive and the Department of Public Works are pleased to provide this update on its 2023 work program.
Upcoming Mill and Fill road projects for Chemung County:
2” Mill and Fill:
• CR 70 Philo Rd West
• CR 43 Schweizer Rd
We will be starting at Philo Road and jumping over to Schweizer Road:
• Milling May 18th, 19th, 22nd
• Paving May 22nd, 23rd, 24th
Mill and Fill road projects remove the top 2-3 inches of asphalt and replace it with a new hot-mix asphalt wearing course. Mill and Fill roads have ten years added to their life with routine maintenance.
Our projects often create dust, noise, and other disturbances. We apologize in advance and ask for your patience with our process, which ultimately results in a better and safer highway system for all users. As always, please drive carefully through work zones, and allow extra time to reach your destination. Our planned work is subject to change based on weather and equipment availability.
Please call the DPW at (607) 739-3896 with any questions.
