Sustainability Means a lot at the Tollway

2

Nearly 1.4 million tons of recycled concrete, asphalt and

aggregate in the construction of new roads – enough to build a

nearly 2,700-mile bike path from Boston to San Francisco

Summary of 2015 Implementation of PRS

PEM along with PRS were applied to nine I-90 reconstruction and widening projects with 13” JPCP

Number of sublots ranged from 40 to 120 per contract

Approximately 855,000 square yards of JPCP built under PRS

Approximately 200,000 square yards placed to this date

10. New Governor means new leadership!

9. You can count on the Chief Engineer to talk about safety…again.

8. Tollway dispatch assisted delivery of the Stanley Cup to the championship game amidst crazy flooding.

7. The agency pays in two weeks – less time than the Cubs will last in the playoffs.

6. More barrier warrants than any other agency.

5. Global warming has raised the blood temperature of several key contractors. Hopefully the Tollway’s more sustainable roadways will cool them off.

4. Just when you thought you had successfully navigated Diversity at the Tollway, the department launches a new program.
