Lindsley Excavating

Roads & construction access. Built for the traffic.

Lindsley Excavating builds and improves access roads and reviews roadway construction packages in Central New York. Work can include clearing, earthwork, culverts, drainage, aggregate base and asphalt paving, with the section and construction sequence defined by the intended use and project requirements.

Start with the route and expected traffic

Provide the alignment, width, length, grades and the vehicles that need to use the road. A temporary construction entrance, farm access lane and permanent paved road have different requirements. Show turnarounds, intersections, gates and delivery movements. Identify whether access must remain usable while work proceeds.

Build drainage into the road scope

Road grades, roadside drainage and culvert crossings should be considered together. Share profiles, drainage details and outlet information. Soft areas, unsuitable soil, imported fill and reinforcement requirements affect the base work. The material section should come from the project requirements and site conditions rather than a generic depth assumption.

Assign public interfaces and final restoration

Where work meets an existing road, identify the owner's or agency's connection requirements, traffic-control responsibilities and approved work limits. Public bid packages should include the official plans, specifications and addenda. For private work, define gravel or asphalt finish, shoulders, topsoil restoration and ongoing access needs in the proposal.

For your estimate

What to send.

  • Alignment or site sketch, road length/width and existing grades
  • Vehicle use, delivery movements and temporary access needs
  • Specified aggregate/pavement section and drainage details
  • Connection requirements, work limits and target construction dates

Project questions

Can an access road be gravel instead of asphalt?

Yes. Identify the intended traffic and the specified aggregate section. Gravel construction and future asphalt paving can be reviewed as separate stages.

Do you price municipal roadway work?

We review defined roadway and civil scopes. Send the official bid documents, qualification requirements, deadlines and any requested subcontract package for review.

Can culverts and entrance work be included?

Yes. Provide crossing locations, pipe details, elevations and road connection requirements so they can be included in the same construction scope.
