Emergency Highway Repair After Storm Damage
Client: State Department of Transportation
Location: Florida Panhandle
Scope: Emergency asphalt repair on a 5-mile highway stretch damaged by flooding.
Challenge:
After a severe storm, multiple sections of the highway suffered from washouts, surface cracking, and potholes, creating dangerous driving conditions. The DOT needed the road restored urgently to reopen it for public safety.
Solution:
Our rapid response team mobilized within 12 hours, removing damaged sections, stabilizing the subgrade, and laying fresh asphalt with rapid-curing binders to ensure the road could be reopened quickly.
Results:
- Highway reopened within 48 hours of project start.
- Accident risk on the repaired section reduced to near zero within the first quarter.
DOT commended Asphalt Roadway for exceeding emergency response expectations.
