Asphalt Edgesaver™ - Roadside Stabilization: Filtrexx Canada

The Asphalt EdgeSaver System is designed to solve the problem of roadside erosion caused by concentrated water flow off of asphalt from storm events. Storm water runoff can undermine the asphalt edge causing damage to the pavement. This is particularly common when there is a greater than normal height difference between the pavement and the adjoining ditch area, often caused by re-surfacing of existing roads. The Asphalt EdgeSaver System consists of a Filtrexx EdgeSaver filled with growth media and seed and installed along the edge of the asphalt. The EdgeSaver converts the concentrated flow of runoff water into sheet flow and allows for the establishment of vegetation which in turn adds extra stability to the road edge. A GrowthMedia Erosion Control Blanket is commonly added to feather the EdgeSaver into the contour of the ditch slope.
