Major road works near Wimmera Base Hospital this weekend will mark the start of Horsham Rural City Council's 2023 resealing program for urban streets.
Baillie Street between Robinson Street and Read Street will be resealed on Sunday from 7.30am.
Parking along Baillie Street will not be available from late Saturday night and there will be limited access for residents during the works.
Emergency vehicles will be able to access the hospital, with traffic controllers in place.
Infrastructure Director John Martin said Horsham Rural City Council had the responsibility of managing 144 kilometres of sealed urban streets and there was $1,197,250 budgeted for urbans roads this financial year.
"There are a number of factors that are considered as to when the road surfaces need to be resealed, including the age of the existing seal, the types and volumes of traffic, the strength of the underlying pavement, how well the road is drained, and the extent of defects on the road," Mr Martin said.
"Continual investment in the maintenance and improvement of our roads is vital and we understand how important it is to our community, and our economy.
"We are always listening to community feedback and reviewing current conditions, surface defects and the effects of heavy vehicles on our roads when determining those that require the most urgent attention," he said.
