This was a trial project for the “Glasgrid” fiberglass road reinforcement mesh product.   On portions of the highway cracks were repaired using the mill and fill procedure.  On other portions “Glasgrid” was used, and on certain portions no pre-overlay repairs were conducted to act as control sections.  This project will enable comparisons of the effectiveness of different crack repair treatments.

Tasks included in the improvements are:

• Asphalt concrete overlay
• Transverse crack repair – “Glasgrid” trial project
• Intersection treatment
• Side sloping
• Culvert extensions and repairs
