Abstract
Road dust can degrade agricultural produce, affect health, reduce road safety, increase wear and tear on vehicles, and increase the rate of deterioration of the roadway. In October 1996, Australian Road Research Board Transport Research completed and published a study of various dust-control techniques. That report encompassed a worldwide literature search on various measures to control dust and a survey of municipal councils and other road authorities across Australia and New Zealand to ascertain what experiences people have had with the use of dust suppressants. The outcome of this study is to provide a guide to the reported effectiveness of particular dust suppressants under given circumstances and other methods to better control dust emissions.
