Abstract

The on-site retreading of road surfaces is an economically interesting and technically reliable solution to the rehabilitation of roads and runways. oble" aggregates from quarries from roads chnical solution to road maintenance s of the road surface s (profiles, crazing, potholes, stripping, cracks etc.) - In the case of slippage of the courses forming the road or runway surface. The advantage of this technique in relation to other rehabilitation techniques is that it protects the level of the road threshold and reduces the inconvenience for users by enabling work in alternation on each lane. It is also encouraged by the French Highways Department. For the first time in France this particular study has been carried out based on the French technical guide for on-site retreading of road surfaces. The present paper describes the specification for retreading work with a bitumen emulsion on departmental roads located in the Caribbean area, from the analysis of the deposits on-site, the preliminary studies, and the recommended retreading technique, to the drafting of the technical specifications of the contracting authorities for the call for tenders and the assessment of the technical proposal of the successful tenderer.
