Lewisburg Area School District Track and Field Design-Build | Lewisburg, PA

Project Summary

Keystone Sports Construction recently completed a design-build for Lewisburg High School Track and Field in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania.

The Client

Lewisburg Area School District serves Lewisburg Borough and Kelly, East Buffalo, and Union townships in Pennsylvania.

The Challenge

This was the second phase of Keystone’s design-build work for the district, following construction of the high school’s tennis courts. The work coordinated field conversion, track reconstruction, and event areas.

Construction Process

This design-build project consisted of several steps, starting with the excavation of the original field and a mill and pave of the pre-existing track. A drainage system and a stone-sub base were then installed and laser-graded before the synthetic turf was installed.

Keystone Sports Construction then installed new dual-fiber synthetic turf with a thatch zone to ensure high-quality performance for the athletes. Pole vault, high jump, long jump, shot put, and discus throwing areas were then constructed.

Two-component sandwich-style synthetic running track surfacing was added to the running track, high jump, long jump, and pole vault areas. Keystone also paved an access way from the parking lot to the field.
