Richfield City embarks on a $4 million roads project

Crews began work on a roads project in Richfield City that will refurbish and repair the majority of the streets on the east side of town. The project also includes repairs on the west side of town. Much of the project will focus on a microseal process, Creamer said. Instead of the traditional chip seal, where a layer of oil is put down and then covered with gravel, the microseal incorporates the oil with the gravel.


The city is also improving Flying J Drive on the north side of town as part of the project. Several intersections are also due to be reconstructed as part of the project including two along 800 South at Cove View Road and 300 West and another at 600 North and Upland Drive. Richfield Reaper
