The perfect surface for Druids Lane bus terminal

One of the first contracts for the latest CEMEX surfacing product, Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC), was supplied to Amey, on behalf of Birmingham City Council, for the resurfacing of the bus terminus in Druids Lane, Druids Heath, Birmingham.

 

The terminus is at the end of a popular city bus route and the area involved was a bus turning circle with a traditional concrete surface. With buses constantly turning on the concrete surface, as well as standing idling with their engines running, the vibrations, braking, corrosive fumes and spillages had caused the surface to crack. It had also spalled and depressed in areas.
