Abstract As a part of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Highways for LIFE initiative, a Federal grant of $3,000,000 was awarded to the Hawaii Department of Transportation (DOT) to demonstrate the use of a proven, innovative precast concrete pavement (PCP) system in conjunction with traditional pavement restoration and concrete overlay on an important multilane highway. The project represents Hawaii DOT’s effort to introduce two different PCP systems, a construction option that is easy to build, easy to install, easy to maintain, and will have a long service life. One system to be used is a jointed PCP system, and the second system is a posttensioned PCP system. This demonstration project will provide Hawaii DOT the opportunity to experience two different PCP systems and to compare this innovative paving technology with traditional concrete paving. This progress report details the planning for the project. The project was bid and awarded during 2014, and panel fabrication and panel installation is expected to take place during the summer of 2015.
