Oakhill Road: A True “Complete Street”

nmaasberg — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 15:42:53 +0000

      Evansville Mayor Jonathan Weinzapfel held a ribbon cutting ceremony on July 21, 2011 to officially re-open Virginia St./Oak Hill Rd. between Hwy 41 and Pigeon Creek. J.H. Rudolph was involved in the complete reconstruction of the roadway, including re-paving, adding dedicated bike lanes, adding curbs and gutters, adding and/or repairing sidewalks and ADA-compliant curb ramps, as well as improving drainage. Also connected to METS bus routes, the new Oak Hill Rd. is a “complete street” in that it’s designed to accommodate all modes of transportation.
       During the ribbon cutting ceremony Mayor Weinzapfel noted, “Residents can now safely utilize Oak Hill Road by car, bus, wheelchair or scooter, bicycle or on foot. This is one of the first truly complete streets in the City of Evansville or surrounding community.”
       Representatives from J.H. Rudolph & Co., Inc., the City Engineer’s and Mayor’s Offices, American Structurepoint, Inc. and the Evansville Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) were invited to participate in the ceremony. Casey Lasher, Project Manager, represented J.H. Rudolph by taking part in the actual ribbon cutting.

NAPA Dispels Some Myths at GreenRoads Summit

nmaasberg — Wed, 13 Apr 2011 15:57:25 +0000

During last month’s CONEXPO-CON/AGG show in Las Vegas, FHWA and EPA co-sponsored an all-day GreenRoads Summit. Both concrete and asphalt industries were represented and provided an industry perspective at the beginning of the Summit. NAPA’s Howard Marks took this opportunity to dispel some of the ongoing myths regarding environmental sustainability of different pavement materials. Specifically, three messages were conveyed: 1) pavement type (asphalt vs. concrete) does not make a difference on impacts to vehicle fuel economy – smoothness is the overwhelming characteristic that impacts the fuel use of vehicles traveling over the nation’s roadways; 2) pavement color is not determinative of urban heat island effects; and 3) we need to focus on more basic concepts: reduce, reuse, and recycle – all of which asphalt pavements excel at. NAPA will be providing this type of similar information in a series of upcoming webinars.
