A dump truck unloads a batch of hot asphalt into a paving machine as crews work Tuesday morning on Airport Road as part of the City of Houston's annual road improvement program.

Houston’s annual summer asphalt program is slated to begin Monday.

The work areas are:

•Airport Road from Chestnut to Spruce streets.

•Thomasville Road from East Highway 17 to U.S. 63.

•Mesa Drive

•Ashley Lane.

Shoppers in Houston pay a quarter-cent sales tax that pays for the improvements. About $170,000 in work will be done by Willard Asphalt Paving Inc., a Lebanon firm.
