PODCAST: One key way that ADOT extends the life of highway pavement

Listen to the episode! (or use the player below)

There are many stories to share when it comes to transportation, but Arizonans consistently make it clear that their greatest priority is where the rubber hits the road. 

That’s why this week’s episode of On the Road With ADOT features two of our many team members involved in preserving Arizona’s vast investment in highway pavement. Brandon Bedoe and Jerry Turner drop by to discuss what goes into a type of maintenance known as fog seals. 

These rejuvenating oil-based treatments help ADOT get every year possible out of pavement on thousands of miles in the state highway system. You’ll hear host Doug Nintzel use the tongue-in-cheek term “Oil of Overlay.” For the record, he stole that from me. 

Anyway, I hope you’ll spend a few minutes learning the nitty-gritty about pavement and how we preserve it.
