2010 APAI Awards
One of the inherent advantages of asphalt pavement is its smooth riding surface which has long been recognized as a major factor in evaluating quality construction. As a result, the Asphalt Paving Association of Iowa in conjunction with the Iowa Department of Transportation pay special tribute to those contractors who produce the smoothest, highest quality asphalt pavements. It is this partnering effort of industry and agency that assures the quality of Hot Mix Asphalt remains at its highest.
2010 QUALITY PAVING AWARDS
Commercial paving projects are a large percentage of an asphalt pavement contractor’s work. This award recognizes high quality projects as judged by a special traveling team. Rated on items such as surface appearance, joints, edges, degree of difficulty and texture, these award-winning projects represent the best looking commercial projects in the state.
