Quality in Pavement Preservation Nominee: Staker Parson Materials & Construction – I-80

This project called for 10 miles of I-80 SMA overlay and an experimental single 6-inch lift of HMHMA mixed design for the Wendover port of entry. In all, the team placed 41,836 tons. They rotomilled the freeway in both directions to a depth of 1.5 inches and paved back a 1.5-inch depth of SMA with a PG-70-28 binder. That accounted for 41,459 tons. The team also relined existing culverts and installed new end sections. Upon completion, the road was shouldered, and new delineators and rumble strips were placed.

Small Project of the Year Nominee: Jones & DeMille Engineering – SR-153

This project included a lane level and overlay on the cracked surface of SR-153 between MP 3.04 and MP 19.2. The route runs along Beaver Canyon and the Beaver River. High-quality work was required because the hot plant was an hour away, and has tight curves, varied widths, steep grades, and multiple river crossings. Due to the narrow 25-foot average road width, this project also included one-foot shoulder widening on shoulders where possible.
