This authority to help with Carbon reduction and recycling, uses a modern technique whereby we pulverise the existing road construction, we add a small amount of new materials and re use all of this old road and small quantities of new materials to help us re build and resurface the road.
Using this process not only recycles, but allows us to use less new materials, it also has a lager Carbon saving, and hence cost saving.
The reconstruction does not have tradition layers of road construction as people will normally be aware but the whole recycled process is the new surface, hence the costs given.
To assist please see below link to a report of this type of technique that was used in Cambridgeshire.
