Catch Basin Risers Used for Wisconsin Highway Resurfacing Project

Problem: In the section being resurfaced on Wisconsin’s I-39 highway, about a hundred catch basins laid atypically close to a concrete barrier wall. “In places, the barrier wall was actually over the basins,” explains Project Manager Curt Neuhauser of the Wisconsin DOT. “This initially seemed like it might cause a lot of unexpected work and expense. Fortunately, the contractor floated an option that sounded like it would work.” Solution: Catch Basin Risers from American Highway Products were used to raise inlets without removing any surrounding asphalt. “I’ve used them before, and have found them quick and easy to install,” says Payne
