Re: My airport is melting

Apparently it is quite tricky to make a road surface that can handle extremely high temperatures - but that will not fail in winter.

You forgot to add “on the cheap”. Of course the road engineers can do this, but the politicians won’t want to pay for it.

The M3 down towards Winchester Southampton has a section that seems to be concrete and heat resistant, similar to some of the roads in USA where it gets hot. It’s not good for tyre noise though.
