Fletcher Street in Bolton, involved the installation of 3,544m² of Milepave Ultra™ in March 2026, with restricted working under phased closures and temporary traffic lights. The carriageway and junction were severely deteriorated, with potholes, rutting, deformation, joint failures and aggregate loss.
The scheme is located on a busy local route through Bolton, serving surrounding residential communities and businesses and connecting with the wider road network. It includes a high-stress junction subject to frequent sheer turning forces from HGV and bus traffic. The works also connect to a section resurfaced by Miles Macadam with Milepave™ in 2013. More than a decade later, the original surfacing remains in excellent condition, demonstrating its long-term performance on the same carriageway.
Milepave Ultra™ is designed for high-stress routes and junctions where strength and durability are critical. The polymer-modified binder (PMB) enhances resistance to deformation, rutting and wear, providing a robust surface capable of withstanding heavy traffic and repeated junction stresses. This delivers a durable carriageway under demanding conditions, particularly where sheer turning and braking forces are frequent, while helping extend service life and reduce maintenance.
