The circular economy: changing minds on utilising recycled materials for roads and pavements – Sweco

In CIHT’s latest episode of 'Transport Talks', Stuart Guthrie, Technical Director at CIHT partner Sweco, is interviewed alongside Mark Batcheldor, Hampshire County Council, and Stuart Gready, MD of OCL Regeneration.

When it comes to recycling tar-bound materials, the UK finds itself far behind its European neighbours. However, in this podcast the three guests discuss the importance of using recycled materials when building and maintaining new assets such as pavements and roads. They outline how the attitudes of local authorities and contractors are changing in the UK when it comes to using these types of materials due to rising costs, the climate crisis, and supply chain issues.
