Cold winter season

Although many of the complexities encoun-

tered could be attributed to the cold winter

season when asphalt batching started, one

of the biggest challenges was the excessive

fines generated at the plant. It was possible

through close collaboration between the

contractor and the supplier to solve this,

and the company is now able to meet the

very onerous RA requirements on other road

construction contracts moving forward.

Also playing an invaluable role in keeping

works on track was the specific focus areas of

each participant in the consortium.

Raubex deployed its own team whose

responsibilities ended with the priming

of layers, after which Roadmac Surfacing

commences operations that end with the

The Raubex Construction and Roadmac Surfacing team.

One of the successes of this project is the focus areas of each member of the consortium, with Roadmac

Surfacing placing all of its attention on the asphalt.
