§ 3-6-25. Repaving or overlay required.

(a)

All widening of existing roadways or construction of new or additional turn lanes, acceleration or deceleration lanes shall be accompanied by complete overlay of both the existing roadway pavement and widened or newly constructed area, to ensure the correct profile of improvements and to obliterate any existing roadway markings.

In addition to the standards and criteria contained in section 3-6-24, the following criteria shall be met:

(1)

Overlay pavement thickness shall be one (1) inch minimum.

(2)

Profile deficiencies or the shifting of the existing crown of the roadway shall be accomplished by the application of asphaltic concrete paving.

Paving to correct profile deficiencies shall be brought to finish grade, minus one (1) inch.

(3)

Existing roadway markings will be obliterated by the application of asphalt pavement only. Abrading, grinding, painting or blacking out will not be allowed.
