When it comes to keeping public spaces functional and accessible, precision and professionalism matter, especially at facilities like your local post office, where foot and vehicle traffic are obviously constant.
Recently, Asphalt Care Inc. was subcontracted to complete a key pavement project at the United States Postal Service branch in Huntertown, IN.
The goal? To design and apply new parking layouts and pavement stencils that would improve safety, flow, and clarity for customers and delivery vehicles alike.
Fresh USPS Parking Lot Layout & Stenciling in Huntertown, IN
Located right off Lima Road, the Huntertown USPS serves a busy and growing community just north of Fort Wayne. The post office had recently undergone updates and needed a freshly laid-out parking lot with clear, compliant striping and traffic stencils.
That’s where Asphalt Care Inc.’s expertise was needed, bringing years of experience in pavement marking to ensure the job was done right and in accordance with local and federal guidelines.
The site had previously suffered from worn-out striping and faded markings that led to inefficient traffic flow and occasional confusion among drivers. With increasing residential development in nearby neighborhoods like Towne Square and The Quarry, the timing for this update couldn’t have been better.
Our Process: Precision Striping for Safety and Efficiency
As a subcontractor on this project, Asphalt Care Inc. approached the job with a detailed game plan designed for minimal disruption and maximum results just like our crisp, quality past projects.
Here’s how we tackled the job:
Planning and Layout
We first worked with the general contractor and USPS facility management to finalize the parking layout. This included customer spots, employee parking, ADA-compliant spaces, and a designated area for postal vehicles.
Surface Prep
Our crew cleaned the asphalt thoroughly to remove debris and residue, ensuring the paint would bond properly to the surface. This is a crucial step, especially for busy locations like this one on Center Street, where durability matters.
Stencil Application
Using industrial-grade stencils, we marked out arrows, loading zones, and ADA symbols to guide vehicles and pedestrians. Clear direction indicators reduce bottlenecks and make the lot more intuitive for first-time visitors.
Line Striping
With high-visibility, quick-drying traffic paint, we applied fresh lines with clean, sharp edges.
Our specialized striping equipment guarantees uniform spacing and long-lasting durability, which is especially important in a town like Huntertown, where snow and salt can take a toll on pavement markings.
What Our Project Achieved
The finished product speaks for itself—new parking lines, directional arrows, and stencil markings now guide traffic smoothly through the lot, making it safer and more accessible. Postal staff have clearly marked spots for loading and operations, while customers enjoy easier navigation and designated parking.
The fresh markings have significantly improved traffic flow, especially during busy hours, creating a noticeable benefit for both staff and customers.
