QUALITY IN PAVEMENT PRESERVATION NOMINEE PROJECT OVERVIEW The UDOT U.S.-40 project addressed several issues between south of downtown Heber City and Daniels Pass on U.S.-40. The existing asphalt needed pavement maintenance treatment and micro surfacing, and with an increase in heavy truck traffic, soft spots had formed that needed patching. Additionally, signs, rumble strips, pavement markings and messages needed to be updated to reflect the increased development in the area. The project design was to increase the safety of the traveling public. Pedestrian ramps were reconstructed to face minor streets, new signs were installed to reflect changes in road conditions and old signs were replaced to reflect up-to-date standard specifications. This section of U.S.-40 is heavily snow-plowed in the winter months, so this project was designed with micro surfacing for its skid resistance and grooved in paint lines to keep plows from scraping them off. This project had UDOT’s Price + Time (time component) specification and was estimated for 67 to 123 working days.
