KWS, a VolkerWessels company, Wavin and Total have been working on the development of modular plastic roads, also known as the PlasticRoad. After several years the first PlasticRoad for cycle lane was opened made from recycled plastic in the Netherlands.
Every component of the PlasticRoad is being designed to make its application completely circular, with the goal of using recycled plastic as much as possible.
It’s prefabricated, modular and light and all these characteristics make its more efficient compared to traditional road structures. It has also a hollow space that can be used to store water, thus preventing flooding during extreme precipitation. The hollow space can also be used for the transit of cables and pipes of for the installation of the electric charging of vehicles.
