The City of Dundas is set to conduct several road repair projects this year, and it is implementing a new system. Traditionally, Dundas, like most cities, has maintained a regular seal coating for roads in the town. Seal Coating is a process of applying a protective coating to the road to provide a layer of protection from the weather and elements. This new process, called Reclamite, was proposed by the city’s engineer as an alternative. Here’s City Administrator Jenelle Teppen:
“Reclamite is a rejuvenator that absorbs into the pavement, making the pavement flexible and preventing it from drying out.” – Jenelle Teppen, Dundas City Administrator on the KYMN Morning Show
Teppen noted that the new process is approximately one-third the cost of seal coating and extends the road’s life for about 5 to 7 years. Relaimite projects are set to take place this summer on:
- Forest Avenue
- Depot Street
- Hester Street
- Bridgewater Parkway
- Tower Avenue
- Cedar Lane
- Bluff Street
- Cross Circle
- Highland Parkway

The other major project Dundas is set to undertake this summer is the addition of a water main line along Dundas Boulevard/County Road 78. The new water line would provide a backup option to the Stoneridge and Millstone Developments in Dundas. City staff are planning a pre-construction meeting to take place prior to the project’s commencement. Will keep you posted when we have a project timeline.
