       Notes - general: This paper discusses the perceived research needs in
                        road aggregates for the next ten years.  A fairly wide
                        range of possibilities for research exists, but,
                        because of finite resources for research the topics
                        considered to be of top priority for work at the
                        Laboratory are 1 to define what is meant by clean,
                        hard and durable aggregates for bitmen macadams, 2 to
                        survey the incidence of alkali-silica reaction in
                        concrete roads, and 3 to carry out research aimed at
                        reducing the frost susceptibility of sub-base gravels.
                        The views of interested persons outside the laboratory
                        on the review would be welcomed.
