Abstract

The development of various methods for texturing the fresh surface of high speed concrete roads is discussed. The performance is reviewed of various roads including those textured by the type of wire broom. The rate of wear and the skidding resistance of slow and fast lane surfaces are examined. Recommendations are made for future work to continue the development of various methods of texturing.
