🌟 Excited to share a remarkable case study showcasing innovative infrastructure solutions! 🚧 In a challenging road widening project along the scenic A72 road in Peebles, Scotland, our team tackled multiple engineering hurdles head-on. The narrow road, coupled with a weakened verge and ongoing traffic congestion, demanded a robust solution. 🛠 Engineering Challenge: The project required widening the road by approximately 3 meters, replacing existing walls, and ensuring safety standards compliance. However, steep slopes and limited space posed significant challenges. 💡 Maccaferri Solution: Working in close collaboration with MHB Consultants, we engineered a cutting-edge hybrid reinforced soil structure. The solution, standing at 6 meters tall and stretching 150 meters along the River Tweed, incorporated Maccaferri’s Terramesh System. This innovative approach not only retained the highway but also minimized environmental impact. 🤝 Collaborative Effort: Our partnership with Albion Drilling and the Scottish Borders Council's environmental clerk of works ensured a comprehensive approach. From design to construction, every step was meticulously monitored to mitigate environmental concerns. 🏗 Result: The £2.2 million project was successfully completed in 10 months, culminating in a widened highway that facilitates smooth traffic flow. Today, road users enjoy a safer and more efficient commute, thanks to the implementation of the Terramesh System. At Maccaferri, we're committed to delivering sustainable infrastructure solutions that address complex challenges while preserving the environment. This project stands as a testament to our dedication to innovation and collaboration. 💪 #Infrastructure #EngineeringExcellence #TerrameshSystem #CaseStudy #Sustainability #construction
