Paving work

Paving work

Once the asphalt and concrete slabs are finished, paving work can be started. The paving consists of a layer of Madrid tiles, which can be seen in most of sidewalks in the Spanish capital. This paving will be used as a bed for the definitive photocatalytic material, in the same way that the asphalt surface.
