Stamford, CT engaged in a multi-million dollar project to create a brand new road, Dock Street. This federally funded new road crosses several important streets throughout a distance of slightly more than a mile. Initially the crosswalks for this project were to be done with painted zebra stripes. But when the project leaders learned about high performance StreetPrintXD crosswalks, they decided to use this highly durable stamped asphalt technology.

The challenge now was on the timing of the Grand Opening, scheduled to be on July 4, 2009. Rocco Iadarola, a licensed StreetPrintXD applicator, received the news in early June. His crew now had to install more than 6,000 ft² of StreetPrintXD before independence day. The ease of installation of StreetPrintXD coupled with Iadarola’s highly skilled crew allowed for successful installation within the allotted time frame.

Iadarola Contracting has installed approximately 8,000 ft² of StreetPrintXD to date. Now that the project leaders have seen how StreetPrintXD performed throughout the tough conditions of the uncharacteristically heavy snowed winter of 2009, they have approved the installation of an additional 10,000 ft² of StreetPrintXD along some very high traffic intersections on Dock Street.

Iadarola also installed StreetPrint genuine stamped asphalt in low traffic areas like raised medians located right in front of the railroad station. StreetBondCL was used to create colored bike lanes along Dock Street.
