Plastic Roads

Dutch company, VolkerWessels, has recently come out with a new concept: PlasticRoad.

As the Rubber Capital of the World and the Polymer Capital of the World we should be leading this initiative.

Akron should be the first city in the world with polymer roads.

Here are some features of this road:

• Can handle -40 degrees
• Can easily handle 170 degrees
• Unaffected by corrosion and weather
• Virtually maintenance free
• Triple the lifespan of regular roads
• Has a hollow structure for cables, pipes and water
• Can be installed on a surface of sand

We just need to open our minds to the possibilities of the future. 

A career politician is not going to give you a city of the future. 

Vote Sage for Mayor of Akron!
