Pavement Preservation on Antelope Island Causeway

This project required a quality engineering proposal for different types of surface treatments by Davis County. Using our Type 3 Micro-surfacing, we were able to supply them with the best overall value and quality. In total, 168,500 square yards of micro-surfacing was laid across the island’s causeway. We were also able to perform asphalt repairs, grinding, and striping. These measures will increase safety and longevity to this road.

CHALLENGES: 
Aggregate was sourced from the Morgan Pit as a new source of micro-surfacing and had to blend to get it to pass the required gradations. To help with worker safety and to not interrupt the traveling public in one-way traffic configurations we were able to work at night. 

SUCCESSES: 
Production was completed ahead of schedule. The general traveling public was safely managed while lanes were merged to alternating one way. The final success was using the Morgan Pit as a new source of aggregate.
