Paving across Franklin County

Franklin County covers a lot of ground. At about 923 square miles of land it is the fourth-largest county in Missouri, and roughly 80 percent of it is in agricultural use, heaviest in the west and along the Missouri River floodplain. Union is the county seat and the city of Washington is the largest city. Most new building sits next to I-44 in the central and eastern part of the county. Elevations run from about 427 feet near the Meramec River to about 1,050 feet near Sullivan.

Long farm lanes, shared drives and access roads are normal here, and so are business lots along Highway 100, Highway 47 and Highway 50. We grade, compact rock in layers and pave with hot-mix asphalt sized for the traffic. Call (866) 490-7680 for a free estimate and 25% off.

Ground and drainage

South of I-44 the ground is Salem Plateau: cherty red clay over cherty dolomite, with caves, springs and sinkholes. Nearer the Missouri River, loess caps the river hills and cuts away once water is allowed to run across it. Neither one holds a thin pad laid on bare dirt. We build a compacted rock base and get runoff off the surface.

Rivers: Missouri River, Meramec River, and Bourbeuse River.

Franklin County paving questions

Do you pave farm lanes and long driveways?

Yes. Long lanes are common in this county, and they live or die on drainage. We crown or cross-slope the lane, compact rock in layers, and pave with asphalt sized for the trucks and equipment that use it. Recycled asphalt is another option on long runs.

What is karst ground and does it matter for paving?

Karst means soluble bedrock with caves, springs and sinkholes, and parts of this county have it. It matters because water disappearing into the ground can carry base material with it. We look at where runoff goes before we pave, not after.
