Explanation
REJUPAVE is an indigenously developed bio-oil based road construction technology designed for high-altitude regions. It was developed by CSIR-Central Road Research Institute (CRRI). The technology helps in laying bituminous roads at low temperatures in extremely cold and high-altitude regions like Ladakh, Sikkim, and Arunachal Pradesh, where conventional methods fail due to harsh weather conditions. REJUPAVE uses a bio-oil based asphalt modifier that maintains workability of bitumen at lower temperatures, enabling year-round road construction in challenging Himalayan terrains and improving connectivity in border areas.
