HIGHWAY 52 – THE FINISH LINE IS IN SIGHT!

After a lot of hard work, long nights, coordination, and plenty of asphalt, Asphalt Specialties Co., Inc. is nearing completion of our work on Colorado Highway 52 from US Highway 85 to I-25.

Much of this project was completed at night, when our crews were out working while most of Colorado was sleeping. From sweeping and preparing the roadway, to applying tack, paving, and all the work happening behind the scenes, every step played a part in building a safer, smoother roadway for the traveling public.

We want to thank the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) for trusting Asphalt Specialties with this important project. We appreciate the opportunity to work alongside CDOT and our project partners to improve this heavily traveled corridor.

Most importantly, a huge thank you goes to the ASCI crews who made it happen. Night work is never easy, and the dedication, attention to detail, and commitment to safety shown by everyone involved is something to be proud of.

We’re not quite finished yet, but Highway 52 is looking pretty darn good under the lights.

Built at night. Built by our people. Built for Colorado.

C-470 PROJECT UPDATE | JEFFERSON COUNTY

Another big milestone on the C-470 project!

Mainline paving is now COMPLETE from Wadsworth Boulevard to Ken Caryl Avenue in both directions.

While the mainline work is wrapped up, our crews aren’t finished yet. Work continues on the ramps throughout the project area as we keep pushing toward the finish line.

A huge shoutout to Joel’s Paving Crew for putting in the long hours and making it happen. Great work by everyone involved in keeping this project moving forward safely and efficiently!

If you’re traveling through the area, please continue to slow down, stay alert, and give our crews room to work around the ramps.

Great roads are built by great crews. Nice work!

NIGHT SHIFT ON C-470!

While most of Jefferson County is winding down for the night, our crews are just getting started.

The Asphalt Specialties Wolfpack is out on C-470, milling out the old surface and putting fresh pavement back down. From the milling machines to the rollers, lowboys, trucks, plant crews, operators, laborers and support teams, it takes a whole crew working together to keep a nighttime paving operation moving safely and efficiently.

Working at night brings its own challenges: limited visibility, traffic moving nearby, heavy equipment constantly on the move and a tight window to get the work completed before the morning commute.

But that’s what we do.

Mill it. Pave it. Roll it. Get it ready for tomorrow.

A big thank you to everyone putting in the long nights and doing the work behind the scenes to keep Colorado moving.

Test strip complete on C-470 westbound at Wadsworth Boulevard!

After milling down the worn asphalt, our crews placed a 500-ton test strip overnight — a short section of pavement that lets us dial in the mix, paving speed, temperature, thickness, smoothness, and compaction before full production begins.

This step is what makes sure the rest of the roadway goes down right the first time. Measure twice, pave once.

Great work from the whole crew getting this laid down safely overnight. Full production paving is next.

Please continue to slow down, stay alert, and give our crews room to work.

Work is underway on C-470 westbound at Wadsworth Boulevard as part of a Colorado Department of Transportation project!

We’ve started milling, which means removing the worn top layer of asphalt to create a clean, even surface for new pavement. Milling helps eliminate ruts, cracks, bumps, and other roadway damage while improving how the new asphalt bonds to the existing road.

Next, our crews will place a test strip. This short section allows us to verify the asphalt mix, paving speed, temperature, thickness, smoothness, and compaction before full production begins.

It’s the roadway version of “measure twice, pave once.”

Please slow down, stay alert, and give our crews room to work.
