When They Said We Could Repair Our Asphalt Roads with Portland Cement, We Laughed!

摘要

Additionally, skyrocketing fuel, asphalt and labor costs represent a larger share of their budgets. Traditional road repair methods were quickly becoming a financial burden to the counties. Peeling up stretches of deteriorated asphalt, loading it onto trucks, hauling it off to dump it and hauling in new base was costing them not only money but precious time and labor.
