Fast road repairs are possible with the new technique from Stirling Lloyd

Major road repairs have been carried out on the UK’s busy M25 motorway. 2314 Stirling Lloyd's Safetrack Crack Infill is helping to reinstate major sections of London's M25 orbital motorway.

The repair work to fretted lane joints within carriageways of the M25 is being undertaken as part of a Design, Build, Finance and Operate (DBFO) contract for the Highways Agency by leading road marking and repair specialist LMS Highways. The MMAX lorry-mounted repair system provides a fast, cost-effective and safe solution and uses a specially formulated version of Stirling Lloyd's HAPAS-approved Safetrack Crack Infill, which is based on the company's advanced fast-curing reactive resins.

Recent M25 repair work has been completed on the motorway's northern sections from junctions 22 to 25 around South Mimms and at junction 5 near Godstone, with Stirling Lloyd developing a bespoke concrete grey coloured system to blend in with the road surface.
