Tar roads are damaging the properties in the towns, cities or villages – This is mainly due to the corruption and adulterated works.

When the public and traffic is increasing — in between 10 – 40 years all properties on both the sides of the road will be damaged. Without knowing or neglecting the future consequences we are planning and accepting these types of roads construction.

The Tar roads are constructed by mixing Bitumen (Tar), sand, small rock chips or stones and other materials. When the traffic on the roads is increasing the tar roads will be damaged. We are seeing this every where. So again and again the tar roads are built over the damaged existing roads. The Damages are accelerated due to the corrupted persons. In this way due to the repeated Layer over layers, the height of the roads is increasing. If we observe, within 10 to 40 years period, the adjacent buildings are disturbed. And the result is reconstructions. This is total heavy burden to the property owners and also for the national economy in many ways. (I will discuss that later on). If the departments, contractors follow the standards then the damages of the adjacent buildings or properties will be minimized. Further we can also minimize these damages of properties to maximum extent, we should construct only cement roads in the cities or towns or villages and peripheral and agglomeration areas according to the expected increasing of the population.

There are advantages of tar roads. They are economical and take less time to build than a concrete road. Recyclable (It can be used again and again by melting it. We never do…), Easy maintenance, Repairing a part of the road is easily possible. And can be relayered over the old layer. They are safe roads provide better traction and skid resistance for vehicles. These roads are free from ice and snow.

Disadvantages are – Damages very soon and due to that maintenance of vehicles will be more. Heavy rains and other extreme weather conditions damage the Tar road, and the roads need to be repaired frequently, Melting of the Tar produces lots of harmful green house gases. If constructed by following the 100% standards they will withstand for maximum twenty years. According to the present conditions of the departments and the contractors, the life period is only for 1-3 years. People are suffering a lot for the damaging vehicles, diverting the public money for these roads.& damaged buildings as I told to you.

Concrete roads do not require frequent repair or patching work like tar roads. Vehicles consume 15 to 20% less fuel when compared to tar roads. They are resistant to extreme weather conditions like excess rain or extreme heat.

On the other hand, concrete (cement) is produced from abundantly available limestone. Disadvantages of Concrete Roadways are the paving cost of the concrete road is little higher compared to Tar paving. Safety measures should be followed in rainy and the winter season because vehicles tend to slip or slide on concrete road due to rain and snow.
