Gravel Road Maintenance

Gravel road maintenance involves regular tasks to keep the roadway smooth, stable, and safe for travel. This includes grading the surface to level and reshape the gravel, ensuring proper drainage to prevent erosion and water damage, and adding new gravel as needed to replace material lost over time. Occasionally, dust control treatments are applied to reduce dust and improve driving conditions. Performing these upkeep activities helps extend the lifespan of the road, reduces potholes and washouts, and ensures safe and efficient transportation for vehicles and hikers. Regular maintenance is essential for preserving the durability and usability of gravel roads.
