Minimizing road dust reduces air pollution, improves air quality, and contributes to better overall health.
As Canada’s leader in summer road management, we understand the importance of environmentally responsible dust abatement. We provide Formula 35 Premium Dust Control to meet our clients’ needs and ensure drivers are safe and road maintenance costs are minimized.
Why do you need a premium dust control solution? Dust from gravel roads can restrict visibility for drivers—presenting a safety hazard, reduce air quality and contaminate surrounding ecosystems. Untreated gravel roads can lead to an increase in road maintenance costs due to frequent grading, the loss of aggregate material and frost heaving.
Dust Control:because it’s more important than ever to
keep our communities and our air as clean as possible.
Researchers from UBC warn of the dangers of air pollution:
In our interior communities, spring has already brought multiple air quality advisories from dust events when snow melts and winter traction materials dry up.
Other studies on other viruses show that air pollution can increase both the frequency of severity of infection. Therefore, poor air quality can impose an additional burden on the health care system during a time when it is already stretched very thin.
Municipalities should take action to clean streets and reduce the potential for further road dust events.
