UDOT has launched one of its largest pavement recycling projects on US-50 in Millard County. Using a process called cold-in-place recycling, crews are grinding up existing pavement, mixing it with binder, and relaying it to create a renewed road surface.

Project Highlights:

-Cost Savings: Expected to save approximately $5 million compared to traditional methods.

-Sustainability: Reuses 90% of on-site material and reduces greenhouse gas emissions by nearly 90%.

-Efficiency: Shortens construction time by about 40%.
