County Earns More Hardware for Wellington Road 23 Project

 

Wellington County and its project team has taken home some hardware from the annual Ontario Good Roads Association Conference.

The County grabbed the 2023 John Niedra Better Practices Award which aims to highlight a municipality’s ability to adapt and innovate to unique and challenge conditions while solving problems.

The county utilized cellular concrete lightweight fill to reduce the road structure load on two sections of Wellington Road 32 in Puslinch.

This work allowed the county to raise the road grade to address the drainage issues and its expected to extend the road service life.

Wellington County was also recognized with an Ontario Concrete Award in December in the Specialty Concrete Applications category for the Wellington Road 32 project.
