Abstract: A texturing broom apparatus for surface grooving freshly laid uncured concrete pavement comprising a traveling horizontal endless conveyor belt having a texturing broom, provided with a row of straight spring steel tines projecting from a base board in spaced apart side-by-side parallel relation, pivotally mounted on the conveyor belt for pivotal movement thereon in a vertical plane parallel to the direction of belt travel with the row of tines extending transversely across and outwardly from the belt and the tines disposed parallel to the longitudinal vertical plane of the belt. Spring means biases the pivoted broom forwardly of the direction of belt travel to a limiting idle position and the broom is supported on the belt in a position with its tines in a trailing working position disposed above and at a shallow working angle of less than about 20.degree.
