On February 21st, our team attended the 2024 SC Asphalt Pavement Association Winter Conference and Trade Show in Columbia, SC. As always, we enjoyed coming together with industry leaders and connecting. There is always something to learn.
To top it all off, our Banks team was awarded a quality pavement award in the SCDOT Project Category for the I526 Resurfacing Project, completed in October of 2023.
A total of 42,826 tons of asphalt was placed over a span of 8 miles of I526 in Charleston County. Which is approx. 32 lane miles from West Ashley to Mt. Pleasant.
During this project, the team utilized new technology that allowed for all of this to be performed in one operation; thus resulting in significant savings to the DOT. In addition, the scope change significantly reduced the duration of the project and also eliminated any exposure to a milled surface, both of which minimized the overall impact to the traveling public.
The final results were an average ride-ability improvement of approximately 30%!
We are so fortunate to have the people who make up this team and can’t say thank you enough for all of their hard work. Pictured is some of the team responsible for the successful completion of this project for the Lowcountry. We hope the community is enjoying the resurfacing, and feel safer in their travels.
A big congratulations to all of the other teams who took home an award in the year 2023!
Our employees share our dedication to reliability and innovation and demonstrate the talent and drive to get the job done right and on time.
