This project consisted of a 2.5” mill and overlay of a 6-mile stretch on Interstate 70 west of Denver. The I-70 Floyd Hill to Chief Hosa project also includes 22,600 LF of guardrail that was removed and replaced to bring up to new standards.
“This was a challenging stone matrix asphalt paving project on mountain grades in the highly visible, politically charged Interstate 70 metro-to-mountain corridor. Due to heavy daytime traffic volumes and hazardous vehicle speeds, the work was performed at night to maximize safety and minimize impacts to the traveling public.”
