• Two-inch grinding overlay

  • Removed the top two inches of deteriorated asphalt and replaced it with new material.
  • Provided a smoother surface and extended the pavement’s longevity.

• Full removal and replacement

  • Completely removed and replaced asphalt in certain areas.
  • Allowed for better water redirection, improved drainage, and corrected slopes.

✅ New asphalt paving in critical sections.
