Limestone aggregate – not just a chip off the old block ...
Roadbuilding. Limestone aggregate is commonly used in roadbuilding, where a strong, robust base is needed to withstand the weight of traffic. Limestone aggregate creates a strong, durable foundation on which to lay the tarmac or asphalt. You''ll also often see limestone aggregates used in channels at the roadside (or on the central reservation) to help with runoff drainage.
