- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what assessment has been made of whether stone mastic asphalt surfaces have the same skid co-efficient as hot rolled asphalt.
- Answer
-
Extensive research on the skid resistance of road surfacings over the last ten years has included measurements of both stone mastic asphalt and hot rolled asphalt. This has shown that provided the appropriate aggregate is used and the surface texture is adequate, the skid resistance of stone mastic asphalt falls within the expected range for typical hot rolled asphalt surfacing.
