The WIRTGEN cold recycling train has yet another advantage: roads can be re-opened to traffic in no time. A WR 240 cold recycler and soil stabilizer demonstrated this on a 22kmlong job site near Hapur.
The country road between Hapur and Kithore is one of the most important links in the Hapur district. It was in poor condition, with potholes, cracks and ruts, which were degrading the asphalt pavement. The decision was made to rehabilitate the road using an economical and resource-saving cold recycling method. In this process, a WIRTGEN pave train mills and granulates the damaged asphalt layers, binds the material again by adding binding agent, compacts it and then directly re-paves it. This is referred to as an “in situ” method. “We use the milled material and process it for this purpose, obtaining a high-quality construction material. We save time and money, while minimizing environmental impact,” says Ram Kumar, site manager for the contractor, Seema Construction. This job site alone extends over more than 22km.
