Pavement on Rte. 24.

Project duration: 30 months

BID Amount: $17.6 million

The work developed in this project:

  • Hot applied asphaltic crack filler to be applied as surface preparation for placement of the proposed Ultra Thin Bonded Overlay – Polymer Modified (UTBO-64E-28).
  • Micromilling for inlay of the Route 24 mainline and HMA bridges to a maximum depth of 3/4 inches along the fog lines.
  • Resurfacing of the Route 24 mainline with 3/4 inch of Ultra Thin Bonded Overlay – Polymer Modified (UTBO-64E-28).
  • Fog seal the shoulders along the Route 24 mainline.
  • Mircomilling of the Route 24 mainline an additional depth of two inches at bridge deck approaches and resurfacing with 2 inches of Superpave Surface Course - 12.5 Polymer(SSC-12.5-P).
  • Micromilling of the ramps at Route 27, Route 123, Route 106 and Route 104 to a depth of 2 inches and resurfacing with 2 inches of Superpave Surface Course - 12.5 Polymer (SSC-12.5-P) placed in one layer.
  • Adjusting or rebuilding of drainage structures as required. Placement of milling mulch to fill in eroded areas at the edge of the roadway.
  • Installation of compost filter tubes/ sedimentation fence as required.
  • Selective Clearing and Thinning of vegetation along the edge of road for roadside clearance and for sight distance at signs.
  • Removing and resetting curb, edging, and curb inlets as required.
