NRMCA Senior Director, Local Paving, Luke McHugh recently spoke on Successful Concrete Pavements in Northern Climates at the New England Public Works Expo in Boxborough, MA. Examples included local road projects from Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. One particular example highlighting concrete’s durability was a ¼-mile section of Westbound Route 20 that approaches the intersection with Route 31 in Charlton, MA. The concrete pavement, which is on a steep downhill gradient and heavily traveled by large commercial vehicles, is 20+ years old while the asphalt intersection pavement has been milled and replaced twice since initial construction. In attendance were public works directors and engineers from towns throughout the region.
