Selected streets will receive Crack Sealing, Slurry Sealing, Asphalt Repair and Concrete Repairs as part of this year’s project.

Slurry seal is a mixture of liquid asphalt and aggregate applied to streets to extend their life. To properly apply slurry seal, each street must be closed from 7:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. to allow for the application and drying process.

Regularly scheduled trash collection and street sweeping operations will not be disrupted by construction activity. 

The City of South Pasadena and Roy Allan Slurry Seal Inc. thank you for your cooperation, patience and support while we work to improve the roads in our community. 

• City will commence the project with asphalt repairs, concrete curb repairs and crack sealing. 

• A second notice will be sent out to residents of the impacted streets 
  • This notice will contain the specific Slurry Seal construction date 

• Selected streets will be closed starting 7:30AM, reopening around 4:00PM on the date specified 

IMPORTANT TO NOTE

• Vehicles will not be allowed on streets until the work is completed and the slurry has dried

The city received two Metro grants in 2021 and 2022, totaling $16 million, for improvements on Fremont Avenue and Huntington Drive. The first $6 million grant is from the Measure M Active Transportation Program (MAT), approved in September 2022. The second $10 million grant comes from reallocating Interstate 710 funds through the Measure R program for local mobility improvement projects (MIP), approved in August 2021.

The $6 million MAT grant aims to enhance safety and traffic flow for pedestrians, cyclists, bus riders, and vehicles along Huntington Drive and Fremont Avenue in the City. The project covers a 1.5-mile section of Huntington Drive between Alhambra Road and Garfield Avenue, and a 1.8-mile portion of Fremont Avenue, spanning from Alhambra Road in the south to Columbia Street in the north.

The $10 million MIP grant focuses on enhancing transportation management and demand in the area. It prioritizes improvements related to transportation system management (TSM) and transportation demand management (TDM). The grant aims to upgrade local intersections, traffic signals, and intelligent transportation systems (ITS) along Fremont Avenue and Huntington Drive. Additionally, it targets improvements at the intersections of Fair Oaks Avenue and Huntington Drive, as well as Fremont Avenue and Huntington Drive. These enhancements are designed to alleviate congestion, reduce traffic conflicts, improve overall corridor mobility for various transportation modes, enhance safety, and address equipment malfunctions that lead to delays along these corridors.
