Choosing the Right Surface for Your Road or Highway
The type of surfacing required for a road or highway depends on factors such as traffic volume, vehicle type, and the surrounding environment. Chesterton Surfacing offers a range of options to suit different needs:
Tarmacadam Surfacing
Tarmacadam is a widely used material for roads and highways due to its durability, skid resistance, and ease of maintenance. It provides a smooth, even surface that can withstand heavy traffic and varying weather conditions. Different grades of tarmacadam exist, such as open-graded (more permeable) and close-graded (less permeable), each suited to specific applications. Chesterton Surfacing can advise on the optimal tarmacadam type for your project. Tarmacadam is suitable for a variety of road types, from residential streets to major highways.
Surface Dressing (Hot Tar and Chipping) for Rural Roads
Surface dressing is a cost-effective option for rural roads and less trafficked highways. It provides a durable surface with good grip and can be an appropriate choice for areas where budget is a primary consideration.
