Fires and floods are causing infrastructure damage worldwide, leaving low-volume roads particularly vulnerable. Roads that can be built or rebuilt efficiently, to quality standards, and with a durable driving surface will be most resilient to storm damage and reduce life-cycle costs. This webinar will present tools to help understand expected performances from wearing course materials on unpaved roads, how to blend different gravel sources to optimize unpaved road performance, and to select soil stabilization and dust control treatments that will produce a durable and climate resilient low-volume road driving surface.
