Ryder Facility Parking Lot Makeover - Cracksealing, Sealcoating, and Restriping
Recently, the Proline team partnered with The Pavement Group to revamp the Ryder facility parking lot in Winston-Salem, NC. This project was no small feat, comprising over 150,000 square feet of sealcoating, 15,000 linear feet of crack sealing, and the addition of vibrant custom pavement markings.
At Ryder, safety and speed are paramount, and this project aimed to maximize both. Our unique approach brought organization, functionality, and aesthetic boost to the parking lot to make sure it looked beautiful and met the rigorous demands of a high-traffic facility.
In this article, we’ll take you through the steps of this large-scale job and show how Proline’s expertise transformed a standard lot into a more navigable and organized space.
What Proline Did to Transform Ryder’s Parking Lot
- Applied over 15,000 linear feet of hot rubber crackseal to repair pavement cracks.
- Sprayed two coats of premium eco-friendly sealcoat across 150,000 square feet.
- Painted 99 numbered parking stalls and added directional arrows for traffic guidance.
- Used custom-colored markings (red, orange, yellow, green, purple, and white) for specific zones, enhancing organization and safety.
- Added special markings for service truck parking, fueling safety zones, and designated trailer areas.
Here’s a step-by-step look at how the project unfolded.
Six Steps of the Ryder Parking Lot Overhaul
Step 1: Crack Sealing Across the Lot
The first step involved sealing over 15,000 linear feet of pavement cracks to prevent further damage. Proline’s team used hot rubber crackseal to fill the cracks, ensuring the surface was ready for the next steps.
Challenge: The lot’s condition included areas with knee-high tumbleweeds that needed removal.
Solution: The crew cleared vegetation with gas torches and manual tools, creating a clean surface for the sealcoating process.
Step 2: Sealcoating for Durability and Protection
Next, the team applied two coats of eco-friendly sealcoat, covering over 150,000 square feet of asphalt. This sealcoat was designed to resist wear and tear from heavy traffic, power steering marks, and weather exposure, while also enhancing traction.
Eco-Friendly Approach: Proline’s sealcoating materials comply with EPA standards, contributing to sustainable pavement maintenance.
Step 3: Custom-Colored Markings for Organization
After sealcoating, Proline brought the lot to life with vibrant colors. The crew used specific shades for different areas:
- Red for deadline markers.
- Yellow for safety zones and truck fueling areas.
- Orange for trailer parking spaces.
- Green for serviced and ready-to-go vehicles.
These colors helped improve safety and streamline operations at the facility, making it easier for drivers and crew to navigate.
Step 4: Stalls and Directional Markings
Proline painted 99 numbered stalls for vehicle parking and added yellow directional arrows to guide trucks toward the fuel depot. Each marking was carefully measured and applied using advanced striping equipment for precision.
Step 5: Special Requests for Ryder
Ryder requested a designated parking area for service trucks, which Proline marked with clear yellow stripes. These custom markings demonstrate Proline’s flexibility in meeting unique client needs.
Step 6: Final Touches and Quality Check
Before wrapping up, the team conducted a thorough inspection to ensure all markings were sharp, visible, and aligned. This step guaranteed a polished finish and a job well done.
A Safe, Organized Space Ready for Action
This project wasn’t just about cracksealing and sealcoating; it was about creating a safer, more efficient parking lot for Ryder’s operations. With strategic colors, durable coatings, and precise markings, Proline delivered a parking lot ready to meet the demands of heavy use.
