Unpaved Sections of Ellerbee Street to be Paved

The unpaved sections of Ellerbee Street in Colonial Village and Northgate Park will be paved in 2023.
In the coming months, multiple city streets throughout Durham will be resurfaced, repaired, and treated to lengthen pavement life.

These streets were selected for this year’s program based on the data collected from the 2021 Pavement Condition Index Survey Project, which rated the condition of all city streets and provided options for managing those streets over the next five years.

Roadwork is scheduled to begin in April 2023. Nearby residents will receive advance notice of work beginning on their street through signs that will be placed in neighborhoods approximately one week prior to crews entering the area. Additionally, door hangers will be delivered to homes and businesses several weeks in advance. Motorists and cyclists should be prepared for possible detours if lane closures are needed during the construction process.
