NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN HIGHWAY EQUIPMENT

Over the past two decades, recycling and maintenance have become key words in the road and highway industry. To a great extent, this is because of the high price of oil, which has made rebuilding roads and highways very costly. But even with the recent so-called oil glut, countries and states - the primary customers for road contractors - are often choosing to recycle road material when possible, rather than build entirely new systems. This has led to new developments in highway equipment and placed a good deal of emphasis on recycling. The equipment list at the end highlights some of the newer developments in highway equipment.
