Gujarat gets India's first 'steel road'

The Diamond City of India, Surat, has become the first in India to get a road that is made out of steel waste.

Often considered as a waste material, steel slag has been a problem area for the steel industry. Laid in the Hazira Industrial Area, the road consists of 100% processed steel slag. The 6-lane 1-kilometre long road is an experimental project that may solve the waste material issue.
