Build more sustainable roads with greater confidence.
Recycled materials can reduce waste, conserve natural resources and support lower-impact infrastructure – but successful adoption depends on choosing the right material, understanding its performance and managing the risks.
NTRO’s Use of Recycled Materials in Sustainable Road Construction course gives you the technical foundation and practical pathway to do that.
Explore how circular-economy principles translate into road construction. Examine established and emerging materials, including reclaimed asphalt pavement, crumb rubber, recycled crushed glass, recycled plastics, construction and demolition materials, fly ash, slag and recycled organics.
Go beyond identifying materials. Learn where they can be used, how they may affect pavement performance and what must be considered during design, procurement and construction.
Real-world examples and case studies bring the opportunities and challenges into focus. You will examine how organisations can evaluate a recycled material, develop fit-for-purpose specifications, address environmental and work health and safety requirements, undertake life-cycle assessment, and validate performance through trials and monitoring.
The course is led by NTRO specialists with deep expertise in pavement materials, sustainability and infrastructure performance. Ask questions, test assumptions and learn from professionals working directly with recycled materials and road agencies.
Turn sustainable thinking into practical solutions for better-performing roads.
