Pavement Rehabilitation and Resurfacing - Amherst, Ohio

In 1990 Brunkhorst Engineering Consultants, Inc. performed a pavement evaluation on all 51 miles of streets and roadways within the city. All pavements were rated according to their Present Serviceability Rating (PSR). Recommendations were made as to the type of maintenance or rehabilitation required for each pavement section and the estimated costs associated with these improvements were determined. Finally, a maintenance and rehabilitation schedule was established and methods of financing the improvements were recommended. A report presenting the results of this work, which included a detailed alphabetical listing of all of these pavements with corresponding data, was prepared within three and one half months of commencement.

As a result of this study the City of Amherst embarked on a major pavement rehabilitation program that was to last for 10 years. As the engineer selected for this program Brunkhorst Engineering Consultants, Inc. reviewed the existing pavements and recommended which streets should be repaired, performed the necessary field surveys, prepared detailed construction plans, coordinated the bidding, performed construction layout staking, and provided construction engineering and inspection for the project.

Work included: concrete pavement removal and replacement, new storm sewers, pavement widening, full depth pavement repair, catch basin repair, asphalt resurfacing, and crack and joint cleaning and sealing. A summary of the work completed each year follows:
