Lancashire County Council, GB adopts carbon dioxide equivalent modeling for road resurfacing project

Lancashire County Council, GB Carbon Equivalent Modeling

Completo

County officials developed a CO2e data model for its highway resurfacing project. The model estimated the emissions that would be created by current asphalt treatments. Alternative treatments like warm mix asphalt and recycled surfaces were modeled to find options with the lowest environmental impact. Lancashire County Council will incorporate the model into the development of new treatments, road designs, and project schedules.
