Planners in New York City faced a challenge along First Avenue, one of the city’s major thoroughfares, which was in poor condition from years of utility projects and repairs. An upgrade project to add a bus lane and separated bike lanes would require the costly rehabilitation of 53 city blocks in an already-congested, busy area. The author outlines the progress and success of a pilot project to use high-performance thin overlay material to rehabilitate First Avenue in less time and for much less money.
