Sustainable renovation of cycle paths
Concrete reinforcement with TwistR fibres for stronger and slimmer concrete structures.
The project in detail.
For this project, a concrete pavement was deliberately chosen — a solution that is increasingly being used for cycle paths thanks to its long service life, low maintenance requirements and excellent performance characteristics. Through the combination of a well-prepared, load-bearing subbase and TwistR GREEN HYBRID fibres, the concrete structure could be optimised efficiently.

In 2019, Schagen Infra, the initiator of the White Topping solution, renovated the cycle paths along the Apeldoornsestraat (N344) between Voorthuizen and Garderen on behalf of the Municipality of Barneveld. By combining White Topping with TwistR® fibre reinforcement, the existing asphalt structure was given a durable new wearing surface.
