Project Description:
Hales Sand & Gravel partnered with UDOT to complete a roadway improvement project near the scenic Scofield Reservoir, a popular recreation area known for its mountain views and clear blue waters.
The project utilized a Cold-In-Place Recycle (CIR) process, in which existing asphalt was milled, rejuvenated with an asphalt binder, and then repaved and compacted to create a more durable base. Following the CIR process, crews placed a 2-inch lift of 陆鈥� HMHMA to provide a smooth and long-lasting surface.
鈥淭his was a great opportunity for our first project with HMHMA,鈥� said project manager Dan Gillie. 鈥淲e enjoyed beautiful views and perfect weather while our Hales team worked with Nielson鈥檚 batch plant and crews to deliver a quality road in the scenic Scofield area.鈥�
This marked Hales Sand & Gravel鈥檚 first project paving with an HMHMA mix, a specialized, high-performance asphalt designed to improve pavement strength and extend service life. The team worked closely with the Nielson Construction & Materials鈥� Huntington Hot Plant, which supplied the asphalt for this project, ensuring high-quality results from start to finish.
Completion of this project now results in a durable roadway and bridge deck that complements the natural beauty of the area and enhances traveler safety.
