Which freeways initially received the rubberized asphalt overlay?
The first areas to receive the “quiet pavement” were; • Loop 101 from Union Hills Drive to 31st Avenue, • Loop 101 from 21st Avenue to Tatum Boulevard, • Loop 101 from Frank Lloyd Wright Boulevard to Mountain View Road, and • SR 51 from about Shea Boulevard to Bell Road. The entire Loop 101, Loop 202 and SR 51 freeways plus sections of Interstate 10, Interstate 17 and the Loop 202 Red Mountain and Santan freeways also will receive new rubberized asphalt surfaces over the next 2 ½ years. ADOT has already applied rubberized asphalt to sections of I-17, Loop 101, SR 51 and the US 60 Superstition Freeway. SR51 will receive a rubberized asphalt overlay from I-10 to Shea Boulevard after the current improvement project is completed.
