Radnor Close Resurfacing project required some logistal challenges in addition to a full plane off of the surface, regulating areas, crack sealing and a proprietary membrane, before the application of a bitumen emulsion tack coat and a machine laid 10mm Tuffdrive proprietary stone mastic ashalt surface course with polymodified binders.
Preparatory works included resetting two surface water gullies, one had collapsed and the other was lowered slightly to enhance the very flat falls. The surface was planed first witha 1m planer and on the second day 350mm smaller planer with mechanical sweeper was used for the less accessible areas and the entrance crossover which was Council owned which complicated proceedings. This resulted in the need for a traffic management scheme to move pedestrians safely into the carriageway with ramps and barriers. Due to the busy nature of the access and the extent of the trough traffic we needed to book a 40 metre section of parking suspension for our low loaderer, contractor vehicles and delivery lorries to safely access the site.
The new tarmac surface, with attendant thermoplastic line marking has really given a lift to the appearance of Radnor Close and the great contrast from the before and after pictires has certainly emphasised how Glenco brought Quality to the Surface!
