Rieth-Riley Construction Co., Inc. acquired the Michigan and Indiana paving and construction assets of Aggregate Industries on February 17, 2009.  This new acquisition will further strengthen Rieth-Rileys position in the southwest Michigan and northwest Indiana markets and allow Rieth-Riley to maintain a strong level of service to their customers.
