Some 2000 cubic metres of recycled glass concrete pavement was laid over four days, utilising over 220 tonnes of glass - the equivalent of one million bottles.
The discarded glass was processed by Lismore City Council, which crushes about 6,000 tonnes of glass every year, including glass from four neighbouring shires.
On delivery to the on-site concrete batching plant, the glass sand was first washed then blended with manufactured sand before being processed into concrete.
One of the big advantages Lendlease has found in using the glass sand is the uniformity of size of the particles, which helps with the mixing and grading of the constituents of concrete.
