Why must a gravel operation be located close to construction?
It is important that sand and gravel sources be located close to where construction activity occurs. Longer haul distances to transport asphalt, concrete and base gravel result in dramatically higher prices to consumers/taxpayers which translates into additional heavy truck traffic that burns thousand of gallons of additional fuel, creating additional air pollution. Other negative effects include unnecessary wear and tear on taxpayer-funded roads and additional traffic disturbances in already congested communities. document.getElementById(‘more_3’).style.
