Three employees: Julie Turner Coates (Asphalt Sales NE), Gareth Powell (Trainee Quarry and Asphalt Manager Halkyn) and Brian Walkinshaw (Quarry and Asphalt Manager Cowieslinn) are going back to ‘school’ by attending Newcastle University for a week to take part in the Material and Flexible Pavements course,  run in conjunction with the MPA (Mineral Products Association).

The course runs from 6th – 11th September and has been well attended in the past.  The course has had lecturing contributions from CEMEX with both Ed Hobbs and Martin Ashfield lecturing for a session.
