Are the tyres we use designed to cope with this innovation? Let’s hope feasibility study was thoroughly done.

One of our local councils has already resurfaced roads with recycled plastic here in Australia! So amazing

I don’t think making plastic roads is very eco-friendly.

Kim van der Merwe

We should be geniuses

This is not eco-friendly. It just transfers the plastic problem to another area. Similar to other plastic re-use ‘initiatives’.
