  4. The N277 «Nieuwelaan» in the town of Meise is a secondary road consisting of two lanes and emergency lanes on both sides. • The two traffic lanes and one of the shoulders were built in 1952. • Other parts of the hard shoulder date from 1966 and 1972. • It is a typical plain concrete pavement for the period 1950-1970 with slab lengths between 10 and 15 m and transverse expansion joints between the slabs. • This road is still in a good condition after more than 50 years of service.

  5. Antwerp Ring Road – R1

  6. Antwerp Ring Road – R1 • 14.2 km dual carriageway • 4 to 7 lanes • 30 km of access and exit ramps on the interchanges • Total of 100 hectares of pavement renewed and fully recycled • 230 mm CRCP • 50 mm asphalt inter-layer • 250 mm cement stabilized granulated asphalt rubble upper subbase • 150 mm granulated lean concrete rubble lower subbase • A fine exposed aggregate surface combines a good skid resistance with a low level of rolling noise.
