This report is aimed at persons or organizations interested in developing renewable locally sourced alternatives to conventional bitumen, asphalt and Portland cement based materials for low cost road building.
The report demonstrates the potential for the development and application of more sustainable and environmentally sound technologies with the benefits of local small scale production, low capital requirements, local productive employment creation suitable for men and women, reduced road maintenance, reduced materials transportation and mining/quarrying. Potentially this would be a substantial initiative facilitating social and economic development, and poverty reduction.
