Environmental Paving Solutions

Environmental Paving Solutions is a concrete sidewalk contractor in Syracuse, New York, certified by the City of Syracuse as both a minority-owned and a women-owned business. Its project manager, James Ross, represents the fourth generation in a family that began pouring Syracuse sidewalks in 1928, and the company has built its identity on top of that flatwork base with a line of permeable and sustainable surfaces.

The products include a flexible porous pavement made from shredded tires bound with urethane, mixed on site and finished with floats, and a pervious concrete with a fine grain that drains like porous pavement but looks like an ordinary sidewalk. Walkways and trails are placed with a motorless slipform paver towed behind the concrete truck, and the company runs Central New York's only volumetric mixer truck, so concrete is batched fresh at the site no matter how far it is from a plant.

Concrete sidewalk work stays in Syracuse, while the sustainable surfaces go in across Central New York and the Rochester area. Commercial snow plowing is offered in most of Onondaga County.
