Reno-based Nichols Consulting
Engineers is nearing completion of six
roadway projects in the eastern Sierra and
California.
NCE is concluding a $350,000 pavement
management system involving nearly
3,000 miles of roadway for California's
Stanislaus County and the 10 cities in the
county. The six-month long entails an
inventory of the county's pavement network,
inspection of 16,000 pavement sections
to detect distress levels, identification
of rehabilitation techniques, and a recommendation
for cost-effective repair plans.
NCE also expects completion this
month of a Monterey County roadway
improvement project on Highway 1 near
Carmel, Calif. This nine-month, $250,000
project was designed to provide a more
functional and visually appealing road.
NCE is providing approximately
$150,000 worth of pavement management
systems work on roads in Lassen County,
Mono County, Mammoth Lakes and
Bishop in California. Pavement management
systems track distress, maintenance,
and rehabilitation across an entire pave-
ment network.
