Australian woods revitalize paving with cement base in England
An improved wood pavement using jarrah and karri from Australia is being adopted in London streets. A six inch cement concrete base is laid, with wooden blocks on top, spaced to ensure drainage. Sand is sprinkled after rain to reduce slipperiness, and dry weather offers good footing. Prices in Melbourne range from 3.16 to 226 per square yard, excluding concrete and excavation. Transport cost could bring similar pavements here, with trade possible for returning jarrah or karrah cargoes.
