Road Construction

The long running Roadex project held several conferences on the construction and use of low-volume roads and the Roadex website hosts presentations, publications and training material.

The annual seminars of the Forestry Engineering Group regularly cover road and bridge construction and use, vehicle innovations and the management of timber transport.
