The intent of this annual contract is to have a contracting mechanism to complete repairs at locations where water main or sewer rehabilitation work has disturbed the existing pavement. Milling is widely used for pavement recycling whereby the pavement is removed and ground up to be used as the aggregate in new pavement. For asphalt surfaces the product of milling is reclaimed asphalt pavement, which can be recycled in the asphalt hot mix pavement by combining with new aggregate and asphalt binder or a recycling agent. This reduces the impact that resurfacing has on the environment. Milling can also remove distresses from the surface, providing a better driving experience and/or longer roadway life. It can be also be used to control or change the height of part or the entire roadway. In addition to modifying a road profile, milling also allows the road to be resurfaced without change to the profile and thus no change to the drainage characteristics of the roadway such as would occur with a reduced gutter spread from an additional 2″ overlay without milling the existing surface.
The scope of this project includes:
Concrete pavement milling and resurfacing of approved roadway.
Justification:
Rehabilitate road surfaces in order to maintain structural integrity in disturbed areas
