Project Benefits

The new asphalt will:

  • Add approximately 10 years of life to the highway
  • Provide a smoother road surface
  • Add durability by increasing the resistance of ruts and road damage

Other benefits of the project include:

  • Installation of new guardrail that will be 31 inches high, designed to meet new safety standard requirements
  • Higher railing will help veering vehicles remain on the road more effectively, making the highway safer for the traveling public
