Ranger South Earns
Recognition For Paving Quality
(1st
/ 2nd Quarter 2007)
 Ranger
South’s commitment to quality recently received accolades
from the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA), which has
bestowed a 2006 Quality in Construction Award for Excellence in
Hot-Mix Asphalt Pavement.
The award was presented for a $5.3 million FDOT project on I-95
in Broward County, FL. The project team milled and repaved three
miles of interstate and 14 ramps, laying more than 29,000 tons
of hot mix, of which nearly 10,000 tons was FC-5 with fiber and
polymer.

Ranger South met many challenges
on its way to a NAPA Quality In Construction award on its I-95 at I-595
interchange resurfacing project in South Florida. |

It was the first time Ranger South had produced and placed this
type of mix. Not only did team members do an excellent job
placing a new hot mix, they also had no incidents on this
high-profile and high-volume project. Project crews can take
pride in a job well done!
Ranger South has a number of additional quality projects
underway. The team is working on an $818,000 FDOT project to
mill, pave and add signalization on Kendall Drive in Miami-Dade
County. The division has also secured a $2.6 million project as
subcontractor on improvements to the Sunrise Toll Booth on the
Sawgrass Expressway.
In Pompano Beach, the division will improve Alsdorph Park by
resurfacing roads and parking lots, and adding landscaping,
concrete curb and sidewalks, striping and signs. The division
continues to pursue and bid on paving and site work jobs for the
county and state.
In Hallandale, Ranger is entering the final stretch of a $1.8
million urban reconstruction of Sheridan Street. The project
includes paving, grading, sidewalks and curbs for the six-lane
city street.
In the private sector, Ranger South has been busy meeting the
needs of several repeat clients. Gulfstream Park Racing
Association, which has been very satisfied with the division’s
site work on its Gulfstream horse racing track and facility in
Hallandale Beach, FL, has awarded another contract that covers
drainage modifications to the property.
The division also has several ongoing projects with WCI
Westinghouse Communities, a prominent Florida builder. The
office has also secured paving work with a number of home
owners’ associations, and other contractors throughout south
Florida.
