Contract Number: 21-12
Contractor: American Pavement Systems, Inc.
Project Overview
The City of Yuba City is responsible for the maintenance of nearly 525 lane miles and over 51 million square feet of pavement. The goal of the Residential Resurfacing Projects is to maintain the City's pavement in the best condition possible given the funding available. Each year, preventative maintenance treatments are performed on various City streets. These treatment projects are intended to extend the life of the pavement and avoid costlier repair or replacement of streets.
This year's project involved the installation of Type II Slurry Seals and Asphalt Rubber Cape Seals at various residential areas throughout the City. The project also involved the removal and installation of striping, marking, and signage improvements.
Funding
The California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle), in an effort to promote the use of California waste tire rubber recycling in pavement design, repairs and maintenance, partially funded the Asphalt Rubber Chip Seal through their Rubberized Pavement Grant program. Through the use of Asphalt Rubber Chip Seals on this project, the City was able to help divert 4,995 Passenger Tire Equivalent (PTE) waste tires from the waste stream.
