White Lea Road and Marriot Road serve the busy Swinton Bridge Industrial Estate in Mexborough. Both carriageways experience high volumes of heavy vehicular traffic, resulting in significant surface wear and fatigue under extreme load conditions. The asset owner, Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council, required a robust, durable asphalt solution capable of withstanding the slow-moving, scrubbing action of heavy vehicle tyres, a demand that conventional surface courses struggle to meet over the long term.
SteelSurf ECO+ was specified as the ideal solution. SteelSurf is engineered to maintain surface stability under the punishing conditions typical of heavy industries —coal, electricity, ports, sugar manufacturing — and is equally trusted by local authorities at road intersections, industrial estates, and roundabouts.
800 tonnes of SteelSurf ECO+ were successfully laid across 7,000 m² of White Lea Road and Marriot Road at a 40 mm layer thickness — incorporating approximately 678 tonnes of recycled steel slag. The material’s exceptional resistance to deformation ensures the surface will withstand the most demanding traffic loading for years to come, reducing whole-life maintenance costs for the asset owner.
