The mill and fill is one of DPW’s routine methods for repair of neighborhood roadways. The process includes grinding off only portions of deteriorated roadway segments.
Milling involves grinding and lifting the top layer of existing asphalt pavement in these segments by means of a small milling machine. Filling involves filling up these milled segments with a new Asphalt top course.
