With the arrival of warmer weather, many construction operations are already preparing for summer projects to get underway. One of those projects will involve an 8 and a half mile section of Highway 2 from Rugby to Berwick. The crew will utilize a new technique in North Dakota known as whitetopping, in which seven inches of concrete will be laid on an existing asphalt base. The process will also widen the existing road. Greg Semenko, with the Department of Transportation, says whitetopping is a faster process than traditional blacktopping, but it also has other advantages... (Greg Semenko, ND Dept. of Transportation) It's a process that's been used in other areas and now we're just carrying it over into ours, and so we're extending our wings a little bit and trying to find something, with the cost of construction what it is right now, we're trying to find a way to maximize what we get for the dollar that we put in. Total cost of the project will be about 6.8 million dollars and completion is scheduled for the end of October. « Less
