The existing asphalt pavement acts as base support for the new concrete, saving money in construction costs.

With the concrete bonded to the asphalt, the composite pavement provides superior load carrying capacity.

The rigid concrete pavement will provide years of service while eliminating frequent asphalt seal coats and necessary “mill and fill” overlays.

Plus, you’ll realize the other benefits of concrete pavement

• Reduces lighting requirements• Heat island mitigation• Supports sustainable development• Improved safety and security
