Paving in the World's Fruit Basket

Asphalt paving in Reedley serves a city that calls itself the World's Fruit Basket. Reedley sits along the Kings River about 22 miles east-southeast of Fresno, and irrigation from the river let farmers shift from wheat to grapes, figs, peaches and other fruit. The city is named for Thomas Law Reed, a Union veteran who donated half his holdings to the township in 1888, and it incorporated in 1913.

Orchard roads and packing yards

Packing houses, cold storage and orchard roads carry trucks, bins and forklifts all season. Those surfaces need heavy sections and good drainage. We build, repair and maintain them, and schedule around harvest where we can.

Growth and housing

Reedley grew from 11,071 residents in 1980 to 20,756 in 2000 and 25,227 in 2020. Subdivisions from that growth have driveways 20 to 40 years old, due for overlays, sealing or replacement.

Historic downtown

Downtown includes the Jansen Opera House, built in 1903 and restored in 1986, and the 1907 Reedley National Bank building. Lots and alleys near them are small and busy. We repave and stripe them with care and keep disruption short.

Near the river

At about 348 feet, Reedley is a bit higher than the towns to the west, but low areas near the Kings River can stay damp. We check soil and grade for drainage on every job.

Common Reedley projects

  • Packing house and cold storage yards
  • Orchard roads with a crown and solid base
  • Driveway overlays and replacements in 1980s and 1990s neighborhoods
  • Downtown lot repairs and restriping
  • Sealcoating for newer homes

Planning around harvest

Fruit harvest runs for months in Reedley. We plan yard paving and repairs for slower periods where possible, and phase work to keep trucks moving. For homes, spring and fall are best for paving and sealing.

College and community lots

Reedley College and the city's churches and community buildings have lots that need regular maintenance. We schedule around semesters and events.

Near the Kings River

Reedley sits along the Kings River, downstream from Centerville. Low ground near the river can stay damp, while higher parts of town drain well. We check the subgrade on every job and adjust the base depth to suit.

Airport and north side

Reedley Municipal Airport lies north of the city near Mount Campbell. Properties on the north side are often more rural, with long drives and outbuildings that benefit from gravel-to-asphalt conversions.

Opera house to orchards

Reedley's Jansen Opera House, built in 1903 and restored in 1986, shows the town's early prosperity from fruit. That prosperity still depends on roads and yards that carry harvest trucks. We build those to handle the load and the seasonal pounding.
