Project: 15 Freeway Diamond Grinding
Near the Pavement Recycling Systems’ headquarters, there is a massive project on the north and southbound 15 freeway to add toll lanes. In March, PRS was contacted to fulfill a change order to blanket grind (as opposed to bump grinding that would only grind specific areas) the new lanes on the northbound side, as well as southbound between the Ontario Ave. exit and the 91 freeway.
The total amount of profile diamond grinding was about 8 lane miles that was inertial profiled.
Using two, 4-foot grinders the end result was 8 total lane miles of smooth roadway that met CalTrans’ smoothness requirements and gave commuters a safer road that also saves them from additional wear and tear on their vehicles.
