Work will be carried out on almost 70 miles (113 km) of roads to help protect against potholes and other damage.
The £3.5m improvements will see 13,400 tonnes of stone chippings laid on top of bitumen on road surfaces across East Yorkshire.
East Riding of Yorkshire Council said the surface dressing was a way of fixing and prolonging the life span of the roads.
The work is expected to take 13 weeks to complete, depending on the weather.
Councillor Paul West, the council's cabinet member for environment and transport, said:
"Our annual surface dressing plays a vitally important role in protecting the East Riding's roads and defending against potholes and other damage.
"Our teams will be working in more than 100 locations across the area this spring and summer and we'd like to thank residents and motorists for bearing with us while this work is carried out."
The work is expected to take 13 weeks, East Riding of Yorkshire Council said
Residents will be informed ahead of time where the work is to be carried out.
During and after the work temporary 20mph speed limits will be in force on the treated roads to reduce the possibility of vehicles skidding on the loose chippings.
Any loose stone chippings would be swept from the surface and reused in future road works.
More than 7,000 tonnes of chippings are recycled which saves around £60,000, the council said.
