Burdick Materials was a subcontractor on this project for all of the civil earthwork, piping from 3” to 24” pipe in size, structural excavation, up to 26 feet deep, and HMA paving.

Crews placed just over 20,000 tons of asphalt and just under 35,000 LF of pipe. The airport also received a full electrical and lighting upgrade.

Working within a 9-hour nightly mill and overlay shift, our traffic control, trucking, asphalt plant, and construction crews were successfully able to rotomill 4″ of existing asphalt and pave back 2.5″ of hot mix asphalt (HMA). Upon completing the HMA phase of 28,134 tons, we paved back 18,553 tons of Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) on 17 lane miles, with only two bumps to grind.

Widening of this stretch of road required environmental, wildlife, and historical artifact consideration.
