This project is replacing the existing concrete (which has exceeded its life expectancy) with Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement (CRCP), a continual, smooth-riding surface capable of withstanding the heaviest loads and the most adverse environmental conditions. The life span of CRCP pavement may be up to 70 years, far exceeding existing road surfaces.

(Please note: The construction schedule is subject to change due to weather, traffic incidents, or other construction considerations. Travelers are reminded to follow the speed limit indicated in the construction zone, watch for highway workers and moving equipment, and please, Be Work Zone Alert.)
