Under Construction
Concrete repair work is expected to begin in March and asphalt overlay is expected to begin in May.
For a specific list of 2026 Projects, please see the “Description” section below. Construction dates will be updated on each Project’s map link, once the schedules are determined.
Douglas County’s 2026 Neighborhood Improvements Projects for Paving and Sidewalk Repair include concrete repair work, where required, and resurfacing of the asphalt roadway. The following is a list of the 2026 Projects (please click on each project for a detailed map):
If sidewalk or concrete repairs are needed, the first phase will consist of these repairs, which will be performed by the County’s sidewalk repair contractor. Sidewalk repairs usually take between 2 and 4 weeks per neighborhood; work on a single block will generally take 3 to 4 days.
The second phase will take place later in the summer and consists of rotomilling to remove some of the top layer of asphalt, which generally takes 2 to 4 hours or less per block to complete and will be performed by the County’s asphalt overlay contractor. The final phase follows rotomilling by 1 to 2 weeks and includes placing the new overlay; this last phase may take 4 – 8 hours per block to complete.
During construction, access to driveways will be available, with occasional short delays. If the sidewalk contractor needs to replace the sidewalk in front of your driveway, they will notify you so you can move your vehicles before the work is done.
One to two weeks before the start of sidewalk repairs, the County will send Cone Zone Mailers to notify adjacent residents of the planned work. Cone Zone Mailers will also be sent 1 to 2 weeks before the start of rotomilling.
One to two days before the start of each phase of work, the Contractor will deliver a Cone Zone door hanger with the date of the start of that phase of work on your block.
Two days before the start of rotomilling and paving, no-parking signs will be posted along the streets scheduled for work. Construction will be done Monday through Friday between 7 a.m. – 7 p.m.
