  • Abstract:
  • Bottle, containers and packing strips etc. Is increasing day by day. As a result amount of waste plastic also increases. This leads to various environmental problems. Therefore it is necessary to utilize waste effectively with technical development in each field. Many by-products are being produced using the plastic wastes. Plastic waste, consisting of carry bags, cups and other utilized plastic can be used as a coating over aggregate and this coated stone can be used for road construction. The mix polymer coated aggregate and tyre modified bitumen have shown higher strength. Use of this mix for road construction helps to use plastic waste effectively. Now a day’s waste plastic is used in bituminous road construction. This technology is not a new concept but rather not practiced widely.
