Re-road – End of life strategies of asphalt pavements (Re-road)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The majority of the European roads are paved with asphalt material. The dismantling and end of life strategies for these pavements are very divergent among the EU member states and the associated countries. In general the share of recycling the reclaimed asphalt in new asphalt courses is rather lower than it could be technically. The Re-road project aims to address these problems with a holistic ...

TYre and Road surface Optimisation for Skid resistance And Further Effects (TYROSAFE)
Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2010,
"The contribution that the road surface makes to road safety is often underestimated. Whilst first advances have already been made in the technology of tyres and braking systems, at the time of an accident or near-accident one of the major underlying factors is the condition of the road. The awareness of such issues varies widely across the EU. In the United Kingdom, which has one of the best road ...

Strengthening road transport research cooperation between Europe and emerging international markets II (SIMBA II)
Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2010,
"The SIMBA II project aims to increase RTD cooperation between the EU and the ICPC of Brazil, China, India, Russia and South Africa. SIMBA II will look at how the EU and ICPC can jointly increase road safety, mobility and transport efficiency, improve road and transport network management and research appropriate pavement design while at the same time improving levels of transport-related pollutio ...
