PROPOSED I-710 LONG BEACH FREEWAY REBUILD IS LABORATORY FOR FAST RECONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES

This article looks at the ways that paving contractors can "get in, get out and stay out", that is to say, ways that they can repave or repair roads and highways as quickly as possible with minimum effect on traffic flow. This philosophy was highlighted in workshop presentations at the 1999 annual meeting of the Transportation Research Board in Washington, D.C. in January. The real life case of the I-710 Long Beach Freeway in the Los Angeles basin is cited as a prime example of fast reconstruction methods.
