The Sustainable Asphalt project proposed by BAM will reduce the environmental impact of constructing and maintaining highways in the UK, directly contributing to Highways England's Theme 4 Energy and Environment objectives. Compared with "hot mix asphalt" traditionally used on the UK network, Sustainable Asphalt: - is produced at lower temparatures (reducing energy and carbon consumption); - incorporates higher quantities of recycled material (reducing both consumption of natural resources and generation of waste streams); and - offers enhhanced durability ( realising additional whole life environmental and cost benefits by reducing the need for repairs and increasing the time between planned maintenance operations). This project will conduct laboratory trials using the Sustainable Asphalt approach to prove its suitability for use on the strategic road network in England, and will undertake the essential work to required to update the relevant UK asphalt specifications to enable the improved sustainability and reduced environmental impact to be realised in future highway construction and maintenance programmes

BAM 提出的可持续沥青项目将减少英国高速公路建设和维护对环境的影响，直接促进英格兰公路局的主题 4 能源和环境目标。与英国网络传统上使用的“热拌沥青”相比，可持续沥青： - 在较低温度下生产（减少能源和碳消耗）； - 采用更多的回收材料（减少自然资源的消耗和废物流的产生）； - 提供增强的耐用性（通过减少维修需求和增加计划维护操作之间的时间来实现额外的整个生命周期环境和成本效益）。该项目将使用可持续沥青方法进行实验室试验，以证明其适用于英格兰的战略道路网络，并将承担更新相关英国沥青规范所需的基本工作，以提高可持续性并减少对环境的影响在未来的高速公路建设和维护计划中实现
