<div class="content"><span style="padding-left: 50px;">(COLUMBIA, MO)</span> - <p style="display:inline;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Innovative Roadway Solutions, contractor for the City of Columbia, will be applying a surface sealing product to street surfaces beginning Wednesday, May 26, weather permitting. Crews use a fast-drying asphalt sealing solution designed to extend pavement life. This mixture of liquid asphalt, fine aggregates, recycled products and bonding agents also protects the roadway from water intrusion. Streets will remain accessible with lane restrictions. Delays are expected. Flaggers will be present to assist motorists through the work zones.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Work is scheduled to be performed Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and is scheduled to last two weeks, weather permitting. <br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">For a full list of the streets planned to be surface sealed in 2021 vis
