Granite County cites premature asphalt failures and orders new safety signs amid heavy truck damage
Summary
Commissioners reviewed premature asphalt patch failures on Rock Creek Road and discussed negotiating cost-sharing with companies causing damage from heavy hauling. The county ordered "Drive Slow – Children and Pets" signs and marked locations for radar speed-warning signs near Georgetown Lake.
County officials told the board that contractors and engineers found premature failure of asphalt patching on Rock Creek Road and agreed additional repairs will be necessary after heavy construction traffic increased wear.
Commissioner Adler said the county will seek ways to recover extraordinary maintenance costs from companies causing damage through negotiated agreements rather than requiring labor contributions. Adler also reported that "Drive Slow – Children and Pets" signs had been ordered for Airport Road near Drummond and that staff had marked locations for electronic radar warning signs near Georgetown Lake.
