Augusta Street from 16th Avenue from 26 Avenue and Riverview <br />Street from Sylvan Street to 16th Avenue and to the northbound 1 -5 <br />Franklin Blvd off ramp <br />Project Description: This project consisted of reconstruction of Augusta Street from 16th <br />Avenue to 26th Avenue and Riverview Street from Sylvan Street to 16th Avenue and to the <br />northbound 1 -5 Franklin Blvd off ramp in southeast Eugene. This work on Augusta Street was <br />combined with work to rehabilitate 16th and 26th Avenues between Riverview and Augusta <br />using local gas taxes. <br />Treatment Methodology: Augusta and Riverview Streets were in very poor condition with <br />significant fatigue (load related) and block cracking over approximately 80% of the surface. <br />Pavement testing confirmed the need to reconstruct these streets due to the poor condition of <br />the street surfacing. Because of poor subgrade soils and pavement too thin to support <br />collector -level traffic loading, it was decided to reconstruct the streets using the in -place <br />recycling technique (see Key Terms) which creates a cement - treated base by mixing existing <br />materials with dry cement and water. The cement - treated base was then paved with 7 inches of <br />warm mix asphalt pavement. <br />Costs: Total project costs, from all funding sources, are estimated at $1,261,000. <br />Total Bond Funds Programmed to the Project = $1,516,000 <br />Total Projected /Actual Bond Funds Used = $1,121,000 <br />Difference = $ 395,000 <br />Using the reclamation technique for construction was significantly less expensive than a <br />conventional reconstruction as originally anticipated. <br />Additional Sources of Funding: Road capital (traffic calming), local gas tax (16th and 26th <br />Avenues), stormwater utility and wastewater utility funds. <br />Project Photos: <br />Augusta Street pre- construction <br />Augusta Street post- construction <br />2012 SRRP REPORT <br />
