Placing the Asphalt Topping on the new Roadway to Camp Jordan
The final phase of the construction process of this road had come and it was time to put the final layer of asphalt on it and then do the striping.

Full Depth Repairs and Asphalt Paving at Shaw Plant 10
The best method to repair this parking lot was to use Full Depth Reclamation with cement. FDR is a cost-effective way to provide a durable surface.
