What could possibly be the largest parking lot overlay in the nation was completed last fall in the town of Cedar Hill, MO, reports NRMCA Vice President, National Resources, Jon Hansen. Located 36 miles southwest of Saint Louis, the project at Northwest High School is a concrete overlay of 500,000 square feet of existing asphalt paving (shown below).
Constructed by Vee-Jay Cement Contracting Company, Inc., of Saint Louis, the project is one the many overlay and parking lot projects done by the company in the past years.
In November 2013, Vee-Jay was named Specialty Contractor of the Year by the AGC of St Louis. In recognition of this award, Vee-Jay hosted a celebration dinner in February 2014 for employees and then recognized the organizations and companies it felt helped them win this award. At the dinner NRMCA was presented a plaque which stated, "Presented to National Ready Mixed Concrete Association. In recognition of your many years of continual support and the tremendous impact that your association has on the construction industry. We appreciate your hard work, loyalty, and dedication. All of us at Vee-Jay are very proud to be part of your team."
