  24. LIMITED CONVERSION TO EMULSIFIED ASPHALT ROADS Next Steps in This Process • Conduct public meetings in all impacted counties • Provide 60-day review period for counties interested in considering taking over responsibility for these highways • Consider any local options brought forward • Address immediate safety issues as they arise • Proceed with conversions as conditions and resources allow if counties do not offer alternative solutions

  25. Safety Benefits of Conversion to Emulsified Asphalt Surface Safety Issues After Conversion Increased roadway width Eliminated edge drop-offs • Smoother surface • Decreased speeds After Conversion: Increased roadway width Eliminated shoulder drop-offs Smoother surface Unsafe Roadways: Decreased speeds
