ASPHALT ROADS in<br />

Christchurch will get a<br />

rejuvenation seal in a bid to<br />

extend their life.<br />

<strong>The</strong> city council says the seal<br />

will extend the life of an existing<br />

road by six to 10 years.<br />

“Asphalt is a<br />

great surface<br />

for roads, but as<br />

it ages it loses<br />

oils and resins,<br />

which causes<br />

the surface<br />

to become<br />

brittle and<br />

break apart,’’<br />

said city council city streets<br />

maintenance manager Steve<br />

Guy.<br />

“We spend on average $3<br />

million each year milling out<br />

brittle asphalt and replacing<br />

it. With the rising cost of<br />

materials and an ageing<br />

roading network, this works<br />

out to be approximately 25km<br />

renewed each year.<br />

“We have 584km of asphalt<br />

roads across the city which<br />

means that, based on our<br />

existing budgets, it would take<br />

us about approximately 23<br />

years to resurface the whole<br />

network. It is not a sustainable<br />

option to carry on doing what<br />

we are doing without increasing<br />

our budgets, so we have<br />

sought out new technologies<br />

that allow us to rejuvenate our<br />

roads, rather than waiting until<br />

we have to replace them.”<br />

Guy said applying a<br />

rejuvenation seal to asphalt<br />

10-to-15 years after it is laid<br />

can replace oils and resins that<br />

have been lost due to ageing.<br />

<strong>The</strong> product sinks down into<br />

the asphalt and counters the<br />

effects of ageing by filling in<br />

minor cracks, creating more<br />

elasticity and waterproofing<br />

the road surface (best<br />

described as ‘collagen’<br />

for roads).<br />

Sealing the deal for asphalt roads<br />

NEW SURFACE: Asphalt roads will have their life extended with a rejuvenation seal.<br />

PHOTO: NEWSLINE<br />

“In the coming financial<br />

year, we are not only planning<br />

to replace the same amount of<br />

old asphalt, but also rejuvenate<br />

an additional 22.6km of asphalt,’’<br />

he said.<br />

“This rejuvenation work will<br />

be funded through existing<br />

maintenance budgets, so no<br />

additional funding will be<br />

sought. It also means that we<br />

will be nearly doubling the<br />

amount of work being done on<br />

asphalt roads around the city.<br />

This should lead to better road<br />

conditions for all users.’’<br />

Guy said it was also good asset<br />

management and better for<br />

the environment.<br />

“It means we can reduce the<br />

number of times we mill out<br />

a road, which in turn reduces<br />

the amount of material that we<br />

need to dispose of at landfill.<br />

“By rejuvenating rather<br />

than replacing asphalt we are<br />

also reducing the need for<br />

materials to be supplied by<br />

quarries so that is another<br />

factor in its favour.’’<br />
