Iroquois Shows Strength Of Recycling

摘要

If you are going to share an award, it is a little easier when you are located in the same state. The Iroquois (Ill.) Highway Department also claimed a Roads & Bridges/ARRA Recycling Award in the full-depth reclamation category. The reconstruction of a 3.6-mile stretch of 1700E involved stabilizing the existing aggregate base course, existing chip seal and 4 inches of compacted stone. The upper 12 inches of material was stabilized using Class C fly ash, and a new 20-in.-wide A-2 bituminous surface was put in place. After the additional stone was added, the existing pavement was pulverized.
