Evans Shire Council NSW Project: Use of Polymer Stabilisation
In June 2003, Evans Shire Council evaluated Polyroad as a pavement stabiliser for one of Council’s local roads, Triangle Flat Road, Rockley to Trunkey. Based on economic grounds and pre-construction tests results, Council chose to proceed with Polyroad stabilisation.

Polymer-stabilisation of a section of the Taree runway is one of the earlier Australian examples of this type of rehabilitation treatment.

Polyroad Tested in Lapland

Polyroad – Yet Another Alternative
In late 2000/early 2001, a project on the Winton – Hughenden road suffered significant distress, very early in the life of the pavement (in fact, one section had severe wheel rutting as a result of construction traffic).
Yass Shire Council Project Update
In 1996 Yass Shire Council began evaluation of Polyroad as a pavement stabiliser in heavy patching work on two RTA Main Roads (MR84 & MR56) maintained by the Shire. The results were so encouraging that Council now use Polyroad for both general road rehabilitation and maintenance patching on its own shire roads and on RTA roads.
