Following certain standards and certifications
Remember the ‘plastic roads’ in Manila City that we reported several years ago? There’s been an important development regarding this—we’re now expecting to see more of these plastic roads around the country soon.
The Department of Public Works and Highways has approved and set the standards for the use of low-density polyethylene polymer plastic bag waste in hot mix asphalt . This means the technology used to build the aforementioned plastic roads can now also be used to build pavements at the provincial, municipal, and local levels. This was confirmed by DPWH-BRS OIC-Engineer IV Neilsen Campit, the mastermind himself behind this initiative.
