Maccaferri\u2019s MacGrid\u00ae EG was installed as an asphalt reinforcement to optimize pavement thickness<\/em> at Ahmedabad- Dholera Expressway.<\/p>\n\n

<\/a>The Ahmedabad- Dholera Expressway is a vital corridor connecting Ahmedabad to India’s first greenfield smart city, Dholera, boosting regional connectivity and enhancing accessibility to Dholera International Airport. As a key infrastructure project, it demands value engineering along with high-performance, sustainable solutions for pavement to ensure long-term durability and cost-effectiveness.

To enhance the expressway\u2019s performance, Maccaferri\u2019 s pavement solution was implemented using MacGrid EG (Biaxial polypropylene extruded geogrid) to optimize the pavement layer thickness. This innovative geosynthetic solution strengthens the pavement and reduces environmental impact by lowering aggregate consumption and the overall carbon footprint. With cutting-edge technology, we are building stronger, more resilient roads for a smarter future!<\/p>\n\n
