Vert Bleu has used 2492 UltraCrete Instant Road Repair to repair dangerous potholes in and around tunnels in the Rhône-Alps region of France. Vert Bleu, working for 240 Instarmac, a manufacturer and distributor of cement- and bitumen-based products, was focussed on a roundabout connecting the French highway to a tunnel. Regular heavy passenger car traffic, along with the braking and turning from heavyweight vehicles and trucks, had caused severe damage to the highway’s wearing course. Numerous other cold asphalts had been trialled in the past on the roundabout in an attempt to repair the damage. However, every product had failed, causing further disruption to motorists and costly repeat visits for the local municipality. A trial was completed using UltraCrete Instant Road Repair and Vert Bleu reports that the repair has been in place for more than two months. The company said that it shows no signs of failing – a significant improvement compared to the previous repair products used.
