What is Britpave’s role in guided busways?
Britpave (the British in-situ concrete paving association) promotes and develops the use of concrete paving in all areas of transport infrastructure including bus and rail. It is particularly involved in guided busway schemes constructed in slip-formed in-situ concrete. Britpave liaises with government agencies, local authorities and private clients in maintaining and developing the best practice and standards. Britpave lobbies MPs, commissions research, promotes the use of concrete, improves understanding among the public and official bodies of its activities and contributes to the preparation of British and European standards. It provides knowledge and networking opportunities through its websites, seminars and study tours. It aims to develop technical excellence through its publications and other media. Members are based in the UK and internationally, including contractors, consulting engineers and designers, suppliers of plant, equipment and materials, academics and clients.
