Online TEAMS-Webinar - Turning onto more sustainable roads of the future on Wednesday, March 6, 2024.

What environmental impact does the road system have? How can material cycles be closed and the ambitious sustainability targets achieved? This and more was highlighted and discussed by various experts in our webinar.

Webinar - Green Roads

On Wednesday, March 6, G+P successfully held another webinar and welcomed over 90 participants.

The webinar highlighted the environmental impact of the road system, from material extraction to use and disposal, and was critically discussed by experts in a panel discussion. Central aspects of the webinar also included synergies with noise protection, the problem of raw material scarcity and the associated challenges and opportunities. The experts' opinions on the highly topical subject of "green asphalt" were also very interesting.

We at Grolimund + Partner will continue to campaign for sustainable roads.

A big thank you to the five experts Sandra Dünner, Gregor Schguanin, Samuel Probst, Fabian Traber and Arthur Braunschweig for their participation and commitment. Many thanks also to the numerous participants.

How sustainable are low-noise road surfaces?

Low-noise road surfaces are an established measure for noise protection at source, as they reduce road noise emissions over the entire service life of the road. However, their shorter service life results in higher costs for developers and increases their ecological footprint from construction activity. How do these advantages and disadvantages weigh up in a holistic comparative analysis?
