What makes Cheyenne hard on concrete?
- A long freezing season. At 6,086 feet, the freezing window usually runs from late September to mid-May, and chinook winds can push winter afternoons above 50°F on about twenty days between December and February. Water in the surface freezes and thaws again and again.
- Wind. Cheyenne has been ranked among the country's windiest cities, with winds averaging 12.9 mph. Concrete guidance lists wind above 5 mph as a condition that dries fresh concrete too fast and causes plastic shrinkage cracks.
- Snow and deicers. About 60 inches of snow falls in a typical season, with March and April the snowiest months. Salt on young or poorly air-entrained concrete is a recipe for scaling.
- The ground underneath. The Wyoming State Geological Survey notes that some Wyoming geologic units contain or weather into shrink-swell clays. Soft or expansive subgrade cracks slabs from below.

What permits apply in Cheyenne?
Anything in the public right-of-way, like the approach, curb cut or public sidewalk, needs a City of Cheyenne right-of-way encroachment permit, and the city won't approve it unless a contractor holding a city license covers all the work. A new or additional driveway access starts with the city's access application, which lists residential widths in a 10 to 36 foot range. Outside city limits, driveways onto county roads go through Laramie County Public Works, which may require a culvert. The Cheyenne concrete driveway guide has the details.
Who can pour a driveway in Cheyenne?
The City of Cheyenne's Contractor Licensing Board rules list concrete flatwork as its own license class, covering sidewalks, driveways, curb cuts, curb and gutter, and floor slabs. Ask any contractor for their city license and proof of liability insurance before they start.
When does driveway work happen?
Most residential pours happen from late spring through early fall, when nights stay above freezing and new concrete can cure. Cold-weather pours are possible with blankets and heated water, but they cost more and leave less room for error. Spring calendars fill up fast, so if you notice a problem in the fall, get an estimate before winter and you'll be in line for the next season.
