MENIFEE, CA — Construction crews have completed the first phase of a pavement project on Murrieta Road between Scott, Bundy Canyon, and Garbani roads in Menifee, officials announced on Thursday.

The next phase of the project will include micro-milling, "which will grind the current pavement surface creating a uniform roadway profile improving the ride-ability of the roadway by removing the bumps in the roadway surface," the city said.

As the work continues, crews will start sealing any remaining cracks after the micro-milling process. When the materials cure, the final phase of the project will include a chip seal to help preserve the existing pavement by providing a new wearing surface, the city said.

The project is expected to continue for several more months.
