What We Did


This reconstruction and expansion project reconstructed I-75 from Coolidge Hwy. to South Boulevard in Oakland County.

Ajax Paving reconstructed a vital segment of a major commuter highway in Oakland County, I-75 from Coolidge Hwy. to South Boulevard. We reconstructed existing travel lanes and added a fourth lane for a future HOV lane. A new design eliminated left-lane ramps, thereby increasing acceleration and deceleration ramp lengths at Adams Road. Adding eight new bridges, expanding the Intelligent Transportation System and reconstructing the Park-n-Ride at Adams Road were also part of the project.

We produced over 106,000 cubic yards of concrete to pave over 347,700 sq. yards of 10-inch non-reinforced concrete. The project was completed in 108 calendar days, 20 days under the bid requirements. It also won the 2017 Michigan Concrete Association Award.
