Sealing cracks

Last week, Moorcroft public works crews could be seen working along South Little Horn Avenue, sealing cracks along the cement street in their ongoing maintenance of the roadways.

The product used is a premixed slurry, moved through a machine that heats it to a pourable state.

“It is simple to run [and] it turned out great,” public works director Cory Allison spoke of the product when his men first used the mix at the south end of Little Horn. “There’s a lot of work to it, but… it looks real good.”

He purchased more of the mix to seal all the cement streets in that area as each avenue laid around eight years ago is now due this maintenance.
