pavement improvement project
Year 1 Complete
The Canyon Lake POA successfully completed the 2022 road paving project, encompassing pavement improvements on over 1,300,000 square feet and addressing over 55 segments of streets in Canyon Lake. This initiative marks the first phase of a multi-year project aimed at elevating the pavement condition index of our streets to an acceptable level. Given that most of our streets were in fair to poor condition, the overarching goal is to bring all 37 miles of private roads up to good condition and sustain their maintenance at that level.

Year 1 Project Stage Details
Following the concrete repairs beginning January 10, 2022, the first phase of Asphalt Replacement will begin on February 14, 2022. There will be 9 phases.
Each two-week phase of Road Rehabilitation will consist of:
- Notification of affected residents by garage door notices and all our media sources, at least one week in advance. Members are encouraged to sign up for project notifications (click here to sign up).
- Removal of the top 3.5” layer of existing asphalt on all streets in the phase.
- Pulverize and blend the remaining asphalt, base, and subgrade material and construct a new 8” thick layer of Cement Stabilized Pulverized Road Base (CSPB) material.
- Grading, proof rolling, and Moisture Curing of the CSPB Road Base Material.
- Continued moisture curing of the CSPB the remainder of the first week, including Saturdays and Sundays (using a water truck to keep the material damp)
- New 3.5” thick asphalt paving and rolling likely started at the beginning of the second week.
- Raising utility covers and the completion of each phase.
Residents of each phase will also be notified by no parking cones, barricades, and signage at least 48 hours prior to their phase. Each phase is expected to take 2 weeks. In general, residents should expect to park their vehicles outside the phase location during the hours of 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. There will be no parking and extremely limited vehicular access to your home during those hours, Monday – Friday. Depending on the weather, some weekend work may be required, and that will be announced as necessary. In general, the only weekend work will be the moisture curing, i.e. 2–3 passes with a water truck, per day.
This is a $5.6 million-dollar private road rehabilitation project, and we will be replacing approximately 1.3 million square feet of asphalt this year, on over 60 segments of our streets. It is expected that we will continue with approximately $5.0 million worth of repairs again next year, and $2-3 million the following years, for several years. This project will be jointly overseen by the Canyon Lake POA General Manager and Director of Operations, along with GMU Pavement Engineering, who will also be providing regular plant and site inspections, observation, and testing services to ensure the best possible quality project. All streets included in this year’s project will undergo the very high-quality full depth reclamation process previously described. The currently scheduled completion date is June 3, 2022.

At the Regular Session Board Meeting on November 2, 2021 the Board of Directors approved the “Year One” 2022 Paving Project contract funding, plus a 10% contingency, in the amount of $5,639,790.00, to come from our Road Reserve Funds. Staff will work with the contractor to execute the contract, and work is expected to start this January, 2022.
