Paving in a Growing River Town

Asphalt paving in Rio Vista takes us across the county line into Solano County. Rio Vista sits on the Sacramento River in the Delta, reached by State Route 12 and the Rio Vista Bridge. The town grew from 7,360 residents in 2010 to 10,005 in 2020, a big jump for a small city, and much of that growth is in newer neighborhoods whose driveways are now due for their first sealcoat and crack sealing.

History written in floods

Rio Vista began in 1858 as Brazos del Rio. Floods in 1861 and 1862 pushed the town to move to higher ground. The lesson still applies: drainage decides whether pavement lasts. We grade every driveway and lot so water leaves the surface and does not soak the base.

Gas field country

Natural gas was discovered near Rio Vista in 1936, and the Rio Vista Field became the largest natural gas field in California. Some rural and industrial properties around town carry heavy service traffic and need pavement built for it.

Solano County rules

Because Rio Vista is in Solano County, City of Rio Vista rules apply to work at the street inside city limits rather than Contra Costa rules. We check the City's current requirements before any approach or curb work.

Older town and newer neighborhoods

Rio Vista's original downtown near the river has older homes, narrow streets and many small businesses. Newer neighborhoods have wider driveways and, in many cases, HOA rules. Older driveways often need replacement; newer ones usually need sealcoat, crack sealing and occasional patching. Delta wind and sun dry out asphalt, so a sealcoat every few years is a good investment. Because the Rio Vista Bridge and Highway 12 carry heavy traffic, commercial lots along the highway see trucks and need durable sections. Rio Vista has 5,199 housing units, and about 94 percent were occupied in 2020.
