FORTA believes these roads should be value-retaining assets, and we approach our design with reinforced solutions focused on quick construction, extended surface life and a decreased need for repair.
How do you reduce maintenance backlog, raise your pavement’s rating score, and save money Consult with PGS. Pine Township put it to the test by adopting PGS strategies since 2012.
In 2019, Kindler and Associates conducted a PCI survey of all Pine Township streets paved since 2007. They concluded that the conventional streets had an average life of 10 years, while the reinforced streets averaged 16 years.
6 years of added life, 30% savings, better-looking streets, fewer complaints, and fewer potholes.

At Pacific GeoSource, we do the research to bring you innovations and strategies that last longer and look better.
LA County wanted to improve the performance of its overlays. In a side-by-side comparison on Davenport Rd, PGS was able to reduce cracking by 75%. This equates to a longer-lasting road, less maintenance, and lower life-cycle costs.
Less Cracking
Pavement Life Increase
Reflective Crack Mitigation
As the highest-scoring Greenroads project to date, Pacific GeoSource helped provide the City of Tacoma with a permeable asphalt pavement to aid in stormwater management.
We reinforced and alleviated the common problems associated with porous pavements and significantly extended the pavement’s life expectancy.
