Background/Discussion
The outbound scale at the City’s Recycling Center was installed in 1997 and has been taken out of service, replaced by new inbound and outbound scales.
This project removed the old scale foundation, ramps, and deteriorating concrete in the area. The area where the old scale was located was replaced with pavement, creating new traffic lanes for outbound non-scale traffic.
This paving project finalized the improvements to the outbound traffic lanes, significantly enhancing traffic flow and safety at the facility.
Because the contract price for concrete paving was favorable, an additional area of paving was added to the project. The project was completed within the original budget amount.
The cost for this project was included in the Recycling Center Operating Budget.
