Original Toronto Star caption: New paver is speedy and economical; This huge road resurfacing machine; currently the only one in Canada; should be good news for motorists and taxpayers alike. The so-called radiant repaver heats the existing asphalt as it moves along; levels it and then heat-welds a new layer on top. Johnson & Hogan Construction Ltd. of Toronto claim paving costs can be halved and added that the machine's amazing speed helps reduce traffic snarls.
