Utah’s Bangerter Highway saw old concrete recycled for new road base. Approximately fifteen thousand cubic yards of concrete were crushed on site. This material formed the structural layer beneath new highway interchanges. The recycling process reduced truck journeys and avoided waste disposal. This initiative gave a thirty-year-old highway a significant second life. Utah’s Bangerter Highway saw old concrete recycled for new road base.
