Concrete paving has come a long way since the early 1900s. Whilst high durability pavements were able to be hand-placed 100 years ago, concrete pavements today are produced faster, stronger and more cost efficiently using slipform pavers. We’ve come a long way. Whilst acknowledging that the right pavement is needed...
