Revere Road Paving Project

The City of Durham is repaving the entire length of Revere Road from N.C. Highway 54 south to Sedwick Road as well as the two blocks south of Sedwick Road. In addition to repaving, there are sections of the roadway that will be completely reconstructed. The plans include replacement of approximately 9,000 feet of curb and many driveway connections on Revere Road.

This project will begin in March with some minor repairs and continue through the spring, weather permitting, with pavement repairs. The project is being funded with 2007 general obligation bond funds. The estimated cost of the project is in excess of $1.5 million.

Public Works engineers will provide information, answer questions, and receive comments from residents and motorists about the project. For information, contact Tim Jackson by e-mail or call (919) 560-4326, ext 30255.

Construction drawings for the proposed work in PDF format are accessible through the link below. These will likely be updated during the course of the project. Information regarding the project will be posted as it becomes available.

Garbage Pickup


Barnhill will be working with the City of Durham Solid Waste Management Department to arrange for access to pick up garbage and recycling. In most cases, this will occur as early as 6 a.m. on the morning of your scheduled garbage and/or recycling pickup.

Water/Sewer


Residents in Section 6A & 6B may temporarily lose water service on Friday, July 8, and Saturday, July 9. This work is being done to lower the water services and prevent them from being struck as we dig down to make repairs beneath the existing road. Thank in advance for your patience.

Parking Area


The parking, POD and carts for residents temporarily displaced by construction will be located at Parkwood Elementary, in the lot with an entrance from Revere Road. Please only park at the area highlighted in the link below, titled "Parking, POD and Cart Area." The numbers for the cart drivers can be found by clicking the link "Construction Notice Door Hanger."
