  Playgrounds and roads

 

Playgrounds must be built on a flat ground. They are covered in asphalt.

Stones are joined together with asphalt and this makes a hard waterproof surface.

Big trucks bring gravel for roads.

The gravel is often already mixed with asphalt.

They work for hours but they make a new road and

it's a hard surface for cars to drive on.
