I-485 HOV Lane Project

The Challenge
The project required the installation of 36 miles of HOV lanes using high-performance thermoplastic and snowplow markers under an aggressive schedule. Continuous off-season operations were necessary to meet a late-winter opening while maintaining quality, durability, and work-zone safety.
TMI Solution
The team worked closely with the client to strategically plan and adjust operations around weather conditions and traffic limitations. Through constant communication and flexible scheduling, production windows were maximized, allowing work to progress efficiently while minimizing impacts to the traveling public and maintaining safety standards.
Project Outcome
Project completed 4 days ahead of schedule with 100% compliance on retroreflectivity audits. The double-drop bead system increased night-time visibility by 35% over standard DOT specs.
Deployment Radius
TMI Services provides mobile deployment for high-scale projects across the Carolinas and Southeast region.
