THE LANE CONSTRUCTION CORP. WINS NATIONAL AWARD FOR
QUALITY IN ASPHALT PAVING

Lanham, Md. — The National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA) announced today that The Lane Construction Corp. of West Columbia, South Carolina, won a 2017 Quality in Construction Award for excellence in construction of an asphalt pavement. The company received its award today at a ceremony during the association’s 63rd Annual Meeting in San Diego.

"The asphalt pavement industry is committed to building high-quality projects that
deliver superior performance to the traveling public. All contractors’ projects earning a Quality in Construction award are measured against best practices designed to live up to that commitment," said 2017 NAPA Chairman Dan Gallagher. "Earning the Quality in Construction Award demonstrates that Lane Construction has met or exceeded these rigorous standards."

The Lane Construction Corp. won the award for the mill and overlay of I-20 in Lexington County between milepost 37.2 and milepost 49.7. The company used sustainable paving techniques, incorporating reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) into the project mixes, which conserved natural resources by reducing the need for virgin aggregates and binder. By using warm mix asphalt technology, Lane Construction Corp. also reduced emissions and cut the costs for drying and mixing. It produced a smooth, high quality asphalt pavement that serves area motorists well.
