Martlesham Park & Ride

The Site:

Serving Ipswich, Martlesham Park and Ride is an award winning scheme designed by Mouchel to significantly ease congestion to the city centre.

Problem:

Mouchel recognised that the pavings ability to self seal would be significantly compromised in view of the immediate and heavy duty trafficking to which it would be subjected. It was envisaged the constant vehicular movement would result in sand erosion, loss of interlock as a direct result of water infiltration via the joint and the “pumping and sucking” from trafficking.

Solution:

As a one pack specialist moisture cured sand stabiliser Resiblock ‘22’ does not require any special labour in terms of application. Following application the jointing sand is stabilised, adheres to the vertical faces of the paving forming an elastomeric bond which enables energy to dissipate under heavy duty trafficking allowing for small elastic deflections. In addition it prevents the infiltration of water via the joint to the sand laying course preventing the migration of the finer fines ensuring that an acceptable CBR level is maintained
