Board approves $25,000 milling‑head attachment to improve paving tie‑ins
Summary
Public works described a 24‑inch milling‑head attachment for a skid steer to mill approaches and remove root‑raised road sections; commissioners approved the $25,000 purchase to be funded from TSPOS.
Public works staff described a milling‑head attachment for a skid steer that mills approximately 24 inches wide and can cut several inches deep to create smooth tie‑ins at bridge approaches or remove root lifts. "So it's a milling attachment that goes on a skid steer," the presenter said, explaining the tool helps create even transitions where pavement meets bridge decks and in areas where tree roots have raised the road.
Staff recommended purchasing the attachment for $25,000 from TSPOS funds. A commissioner moved to approve the purchase and the board approved the motion. Staff said the tool will increase productivity for patching and tie‑in work and reduce repetitive patching.
