Cutting tailpipe emissions is only the start of the decarbonization process that road networks must undergo. In this podcast Giles Perkins, program director for Live Labs 2, explains more about the UK’s three-year £30m innovation scheme, testing everything from low carbon streetlighting to innovative pavement materials in a quest to create best-practice for decarbonizing road infrastructure. In conversation with TTi editor Tom Stone, Perkins discusses how concrete, steel and asphalt represent a significant carbon footprint – and the ways in which Live Labs 2 is trying to address this.
