Peterborough, ON – PRI Engineering has officially opened its new CCIL-certified Asphalt Laboratory at 768 The Kingsway in Peterborough, offering asphalt mix compliance testing using both the Marshall Method (Type B) and Superpave Method (Type B).

The facility is managed by Kasey Conlon, C.E.T., who brings over 15 years of experience in geotechnical and asphalt laboratory management. Under her direction, the lab is prepared to deliver dependable, consistent results in alignment with provincial and industry standards.
