Road Reconstruction

Reconstruction of County Road 80

Project overview

This is a complete reconstruction project for approximately 2 miles of Montauk Highway. This portion of Montauk Highway is heavily traveled with mostly commercial traffic. The project consists of installing a positive drainage system, two new recharge basins, road widening, interconnect traffic signal system, curbs, sidewalks, landscaping and asphalt paving.

What made this job complex

Posillico needs to maintain the efficient flow of the high volume of traffic through the area as well as perform due diligence with respect to the large number of underground utilities in the area.

How Posillico solved it

Posillico communicated with local business owners in the area and staged work to minimize disruptions to their businesses. Additionally, there were a significant number of utilities underground to be accounted for when installing the new drainage systems. Posillico performed test pits early in the project to identify conflicts of new and existing utilities. Posillico worked with the County to redesign a new drainage system to avoid these conflicted areas.
