The Tyler City Council voted on Wednesday to approve a $333,205.65 contract with Missouri Petroleum, LLC for the construction of the 2020 ONYX seal project.
The project will cover about 11 miles of roads or 49 streets within the city.
ONYX is a surface treatment that prolongs the life of the asphalt and gives drivers a safer surface to travel on.
“Public safety and economic competitiveness are dependent upon smooth, functional roadways,” said City Manager Edward Broussard. “We have built a sustainable Quality Street Commitment fund that will improve our streets for future generations.”
The project is scheduled to begin in June and be completed at the end of July, depending on the weather.
The 2020 ONYX seal project is funded through the General Fund.
