Mid-State Erosion Control is your go-to company when it comes to safe and environmentally friendly construction site practices. Our team has decades of experience in contributing to safe and responsible construction, helping to preserve the surrounding environment, and promoting site safety. One such service that we provide for contractors on construction sites is stabilized construction entrances, all planned and customized with Mississippi’s landscape and environmental needs in mind.
Construction projects often result in erosion and sediment runoff in the surrounding environment. Construction entrances are a first line of defense to protect the land and public use areas around construction sites. They provide a stable surface for vehicles moving to and from the construction site, prevent sediment from being tracked onto public roads, and safeguard the surrounding environment from erosion and runoff.
While every situation is unique, most construction entrances consist of similar components designed to robustly protect public roads, the site itself, and the surrounding environment. A permeable geotextile is laid as a foundation to stabilize the surface of and surrounding the construction site. An aggregate base provides further stability and durability, designed for heavy construction vehicles and equipment. This base acts as a buffer to facilitate drainage and reduce soil erosion. A sediment basin is constructed within the entrance, allowing for the collection and settling of sediment-laden water to prevent runoff from carrying sediment onto public roadways or into areas around the site. Vehicle tracking pads are placed where equipment and vehicles regularly travel to remove excess sediment and construction site materials from tires so that it is not carried onto public roadways or further into the construction site.
Based on experience, we don’t adhere to a one-size-fits-all solution. Mid-State Erosion Control works closely with you to design and implement stabilized construction entrances that align with the intricacies of your particular construction site. Our quality installations exceed industry standards and deliver durable, effective, and environmentally conscious solutions.
