Roadway/Bridge Maintenance
Concrete Pavement Rehabilitation (CPR) for Local City Streets and County Roads
This workshop will cover all aspects of rehabilitation for concrete pavement, concrete curb and gutter, and median sidewalk pavement. The workshop includes two field sessions—one to determine what to repair, and the other to review actual concrete rehabilitation repairs made using a Minnesota LRRB manual (Best Practices for Concrete Repair of Local Streets and County Roads). The LRRB has designed new repair standards for the course based on successful repairs performed by various Minnesota cities and the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT).
