PROJECT DESCRIPTION • Full depth reclamation. • Construction of 2’ wide paved shoulders. This project was a full depth reclamation of NW CR 236 from I-75to NW CR 241 with the addition of 2 foot paved shoulders. The condition of the base of NW CR 236 required a reconstruction. Reclamation was chosen as the method of reconstruction because it was more cost and time efficient than a traditional reconstruction. The project was designed in-house and was constructed by John C. Hipp Construction Equipment Co., Inc. The construction contract allowed 150 construction days and actually took 144 days. Because this process was a new type of construction in Alachua County, the contractor and County inspectors had to learn new ways to test the base to determine proper densities to demonstrate that the roadway would have the proper structural integrity. Overall, County staff was very pleased with this construction process and has used it on multiple projects since. Funding for this project came from the Transportation Trust Fund.
