The invention concerns a method for making a granular road surfacing material, which consists: in using at least two different granular fractions, a coarse granular fraction consisting of large and/or medium aggregates and fine granular fraction consisting of fine aggregates; coating the aggregates of the coarse granular fraction with an organic binder, so as to form an organic coarse phase; mixing the aggregates of the fine granular fraction with a mineral binder and with an amount of input water, so as to form a mineral fine phase; mixing the organic coarse phase and the mineral fine phase to obtain a material ready to be spread or stored. The organic binder is advantageously a soft bitumen emulsion, in which case the coating of the coarse granular fraction is carried out by cold process and the final mixing of the two phases is carried out preferably after break-up of the emulsion.
