After a close call, Ajax Paving Industries of Florida President Vince Hafeli wrote a letter to NAPA and enclosed a check payable to NAPAREF for $7,500 – the same amount that NAPA Care pays out immediately to the families of workers at member companies who are fatally injured. In his letter, Hafeli wrote that if NAPA’s entire membership were to contribute each time a life was not lost in a near-hit, “we could perhaps grow the NAPAREF reserves and increase the dollar amount we award to families when there is a loss.”


 
   

Pennsylvania’s Interstate 90 connects Ohio and New York, running alongside Lake Erie. In the county that shares the lake’s name, Lindy Paving completed a seven-mile project that earned it the Sheldon G. Hayes Award.

The I-90 project was a full reconstruction and included the raising and widening of three overpass bridges, two mainline bridge replacements, and the construction of a teardrop roundabout interchange, the first of its kind in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

Constructing long-lasting pavements isn’t a new goal by any means, but NAPA Vice President for Engineering, Research, & Technology Richard Willis has said that the industry is beginning to change its approach to perpetual pavements.
