Home Zones Paving - Precast Concrete Paving Solutions for Today's Residential Street Environments

Home Zones are residential streets or groups of streets where people and vehicles share the whole road space safely and on equal terms, although the motorist should feel like a ‘guest’ in the area. They are designed so that quality of life takes precedence over ease of traffic movement and they aim to promote neighbourliness and a sense of security. Home Zones are growing rapidly in popularity and one of their main features is street resurfacing – frequently with precast concrete block and flag paving, and other related products.
