Lane Construction Lands Contract to Repave Daytona Speedway

Project is slated to be complete by Jan. 1, 2011.

The Lane Construction Corp. has been contracted to repave Daytona International Speedway, home of the Daytona 500.

"Lane is thrilled to bring its wealth of construction and paving experience to NASCAR's most prestigious race track," announces Robert Alger, Lane president and CEO. "We're ready to get to work to create a new smooth racing surface at Daytona."

Lane will begin repaving Daytona on July 4, 2010, with a target completion date of January 1, 2011.

Since 2003, Lane has paved several NASCAR tracks, including Talladega Superspeedway, Homestead-Miami Speedway, Richmond International Raceway, Darlington Raceway, Charlotte Motor Speedway, Atlanta Motor Speedway and the Texas Motor Speedway.

Lane's specialty race track crew will remove all of the existing asphalt, down to the 52-year-old lime rock base.
