Canada Larga Road

Ventura, CA - 2013

Description

A two-mile segment of the two-lane, rural Canada Larga Road in Ventura County, CA was in bad shape after 30 years of use with no major rehabilitation. When it came time to lay new pavement, a 2” rubberized asphalt overlay reinforced with FORTA-FI® was chosen for one mile and a 2” rubberized overlay with no fiber was chosen for the second mile. Cracking on both segments will be evaluated over the next several years.

UPDATE:

After 11 years this roadway still shows little signs of cracking on the FORTAfied™ side and will continue to remain Stronger Lasting™ for many years to come.

Key Points

  • Extended Pavement Life
  • Reduced Rutting & Raveling
  • Reduced Cracking
