Paving Where Trucks and Subdivisions Meet

Asphalt paving in Upper Macungie Township serves two kinds of customers: homeowners in newer neighborhoods around Breinigsville, Fogelsville and Trexlertown, and businesses in the industrial and commerce parks along Schantz Road and near the highway interchanges. The township had 26,377 residents at the 2020 census and was the fourth-fastest growing municipality of any type in Pennsylvania from 2010 to 2020.

Built for trucks

The Fogelsville interchange (exit 49) links I-78 and US 22 with PA 100, while US 222, the Northeast Extension and PA 863 add more through traffic. That makes it a logistics hub, and the Lehigh Valley as a whole is one of the leading warehouse and distribution areas on the East Coast. Truck traffic is the hardest thing pavement faces. Truck courts, loading areas and entrances need thicker asphalt and deeper base than car parking, and turning trucks tear up a thin surface quickly. We size each area of a commercial lot for its traffic.

Newer home driveways

Many homes here were built in the last two decades, and their driveways are reaching the age for first sealing, crack filling or edge repair, or in some cases replacement. Driveways laid right after construction sometimes sit on a base that was rutted by construction traffic before it was paved. When those fail early, the fix is removing the asphalt and rebuilding the base properly.

Road responsibility

Upper Macungie had 182.81 miles of public roads in 2022: 135.94 maintained by the township, 45.97 by PennDOT and 0.90 by the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission. With that many state roads, plenty of driveways and commercial entrances connect to a PennDOT route, where a Highway Occupancy Permit applies to new or changed connections. On township roads, township rules apply.

Climate

Fogelsville averages 28.5 degrees in January and 73.3 in July. Truck lots in this climate need crack filling every year or two; cracks that let water into the base under heavy loads become potholes fast.

Commercial maintenance plans

Industrial and commerce park lots along Schantz Road and near Fogelsville take a beating year-round. A simple plan helps: crack filling every year or two, sealing the car parking areas every few years, patching failed spots as soon as they appear, and restriping when lines fade. Truck lanes usually need mill-and-overlay work on their own cycle. We can price each item separately so property managers can plan budgets a few years out. For homeowners in Breinigsville and Trexlertown, the equivalent is simpler: fill cracks in the fall, seal every few years, and keep downspouts off the driveway.

Upper Macungie Township Questions

Can you pave a truck court or loading area?

Yes. Truck areas get thicker base and asphalt sections than car parking. We look at the traffic and loads before setting the design.

My driveway is less than ten years old and already cracking. Why?

Often the base was disturbed during construction, or water is reaching it from a downspout or low spot. We find the cause before recommending a repair.

Is Breinigsville or Trexlertown in your area?

Yes, throughout Upper Macungie and the neighboring townships.

Can you give us a multi-year maintenance plan for our lot?

Yes. We price crack filling, sealing, patching and restriping as separate items so you can plan them over several years.

Do you restripe warehouse and office lots?

Yes, with the accessible and van-accessible spaces the 2010 ADA Standards require when a lot is restriped.

Can you work at night on a busy commercial lot?

For crack filling and some striping, yes. Paving schedules depend on plant hours and lighting, and we plan around your operations.
