               INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT






To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Meadow Valley Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Meadow Valley
Corporation and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 1998 and 1999,
and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders'
equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1999. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted audit standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Meadow
Valley Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1999, and the
consolidated results of their operations, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
