The feature article in this issue of RoadNews is dedicated to two topics that will play a major role in the future: automation and process optimization in road construction and processing technology.

The feature article in this issue of RoadNews is dedicated to the construction and rehabilitation of runways at international airports. We are proud of the fact that technologies from the entire WIRTGEN GROUP often play the leading role in the construction and redevelopment of airports all over the world.

That’s why this issue of RoadNews explores an important question: How have the innovations that we presented at Bauma 2016 proven themselves in the field? To answer this question, we closely monitored the first projects that were carried out using our cutting-edge machine and system generations, spoke with operators, and documented the results.

The world of road construction never ceases to impress. Issue 2 of RoadNews reports on the construction of the new Formula 1 circuit in Azerbaijan’s capital Baku and on technologies for the construction and recycling of asphalt roads. However, the machine technology of WIRTGEN GROUP machines is not only used in conventional road construction. The user magazine reports on special applications such as paving colored asphalt in gardening and landscaping applications, filling gaps between crash barriers on highways, and paving a dragstrip in Norway designed for a top speed of more than 500 km/h.

The focus of this issue is on Bauma 2016 in Munich. How could it be any different? After all, the WIRTGEN GROUP presented a multitude of attractive new products and groundbreaking technologies at the world’s largest trade show. This issue of RoadNews highlights the latest innovations.
