Located along the south side of U.S. 50 between Breese and Trenton in Clinton County, IDOT’s new 1-mile test track covers multiple disciplines in pavement testing, including ride, friction and structural assessment. It also will offer at least six different textured surfaces for skid testing correlation, as well as copper plates for ground-penetrating radar testing. The track will be one of only four of its kind in the nation and consists of all pavement types – continuously reinforced concrete pavement, full-depth hot-mix asphalt pavement and jointed plain concrete pavement.
Please join us for a presentation and luncheon by IDOT’s Bureau Chief of Research, John Senger, on November 2.
