No equipment will be allowed on the artificial turf field. Foot traffic will be allowed on the artificial turf field during construction only where the field is protected with polyethylene plastic and plywood, or other suitable materials. After the rubber surfacing is removed and the pavement areas have been milled to a depth of 1-1/2-inches, the exposed pavement surface will be evaluated and distressed areas will be repaired by saw cutting the pavement, removing the existing pavement and underlying materials to a total depth of 11-inches, and reconstructing the repair area with 8-inches of new base aggregate and 3-inches of new bituminous pavement (including the 1-1/2-inch over lay).
