Alford farm lane surface dressing

First-layer hot tar and chip application to a 1.2-metre widened strip.

34 seconds · Silent video · First layer in progress

First-layer hot tar and chip application on a widened farm lane in Alford, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Our specialist combi unit was set to a 1.2-metre working width, applying hot bitumen and premium granite roadstone chippings to the prepared road planings beside the existing tarmac.

Preparing a one-mile farm lane in Alford

The farm lane was approximately one mile long. The farmer had widened the road, and the widened section was uneven and in poor condition. We levelled the area and laid recycled asphalt road planings along a strip approximately 1.2 metres wide, extending along the length of the lane.

Combi-unit application set to 1.2 metres

We adjusted our specialist combi unit to an exact 1.2-metre application width to match the prepared strip. The hot tar and chip treatment sealed the new road planings and formed a neat edge joint with the existing tarmac surface.
