Description:

Got Potholes? Infrared Asphalt Restoration Is Your Solution (Rebroadcast)

This program is a rebroadcast of the original program. It is offered again due to popular demand, in case you were not able to attend. This event will be streamed to you and will require use of your computer�s speakers.

Are you constantly filling the same potholes over and over again only to see your maintenance dollars wasted?

Infrared technology will add 5 years to the life cycle of your pavements while saving your agency hundreds of thousands of dollars in cheap repetitive repairs and premature overlays. Repair potholes right the first time and buy yourself some time to overlay when the whole road is ready for new asphalt.

Infrared asphalt restoration is now spreading to all parts of the country as an economical permanent solution to potholes, settled utility cuts, and other asphalt surface failures. When used properly, infrared heat technology can make the most common complaints of the travelling public become a call of thanks by making the humps and bumps of potholes and utility cuts smooth again.

Infrared asphalt restoration can be one of your most valuable pavement management tools when used properly. With a continually increasing cost to roadway paving, it only makes sense to learn about innovative ways to stretch the taxpayer�s dollars.

Got Potholes? Infrared asphalt restoration is your solution.

After viewing this program, participants will be better able to:
� Identify proper applications for infrared technology
� Utilize an additional pavement preservation tool
� Save money on roadway repair costs
