Richmond, BC recycled asphalt road paving pilot

The City of Richmond partnered with Lafarge Canada to pilot a more sustainable form of road paving using higher levels of recycled asphalt. The city's High Recycled Asphalt Pavement Project has paved a section of local road stretching over 3.2 kilometers using 40% recycled material. The road will be closely monitored to address potential quality control challenges. The project was designed to produce confidence in roads paved using more than the previous 10% limit of recycled material.
