Document Description
Caltrans proposes emergency repair of roadway settlement on Highway 1 in San Mateo County at post mile 13.5. Surface runoff seeping into pavement cracks has caused over-saturation and collapse of the supporting soil, resulting in pavement settlement. The dips and cracks have exposed the subsurface layers of the pavement, allowing water to collect and further degrade the structural integrity of the roadway. As the settlement currently measures about 3 inches, it poses a threat to road users. Temporary traffic control will be implemented during construction activities. The project will grind the existing hot mix asphalt (HMA) on the roadway and then perform any work necessary to buttress and reinforce the distressed pavement structural section. The roadway will then be repaved with HMA and HMA paving fabric. Any damaged or removed pavement delineation and striping will be replaced.
