Netherlands to Build Roads With Recycled Plastic From the Ocean

A Netherlands-based country called VolkerWessels is using plastic collected from the ocean to build roads.

Their research suggests that PlasticRoads will be “more durable and easier to manipulate and maintain”. They also believe that this kind of construction technique can work with virtually any kind of collected plastic.  

And this isn’t just a hypothetical model; VolkerWessels has already started laying pilot PlasticRoads around the Netherlands!
