We're recycling 280,000 tons of asphalt and concrete from the existing interstate to produce NDDOT Salvage Base. The 100% recycled aggregate will be placed on the road grade as the foundation for new concrete to be poured, connecting the cities of Fargo an Grand Forks North Dakota. The two primary benefits of crushing the old interstate into base for the new segment are:
1. Reduced environmental impact by not having to mine new aggregates
2. Tremendous cost savings be reducing transport cost across the project.
Projects like these have become commonplace when working with DOT's and present a very sustainable option to maintain our nations infrastructure.

As an asphalt guy and a drone owner, this would pretty well combine two things I love doing 😂
Love it
Awesome set up
Thank you
I work at a small ledge quarry in Maine, would love to have on of those big stackers. Good vid. Like your content
Stackers make a huge difference, allowing us to pile a lot of material in a smaller footprint! Thanks for watching
Nice operation!
Thanks JV!
I wonder how one starts a company that does this
Most guys starting out today would get a small project and deploy a rental fleet and build from there. In our case, we've been in the aggregate processing space since the early 1960's
My question is you don't have many problems with ripped belts on the jaw from metal being stuck still in the jaw as it falls to the Lower belt?
Not too many issues on this job. Material is prepped well. Other jobs have been a problem.
That’s interesting I have not heard of mixing concrete and asphalt together. How does that hold up on a road?
fairly well. It is compacted and treated similar to gravel base & has a similar lifespan
Spruce Valley did the same thing on the hwy 2 project between Fosston and hwy 59.
its becoming a common way to rebuild!
If people would only watch the right vid they would lean how metal is removed nice
Yes
