What Anti-Skid Paving?
(Sory. Japanese only yet.)

Resin-typed Anti-Skid paving connects ceramics and similar hard material with resin on the surface, which increases the friction between tire and road surface. This in turn reduces accidents due to slippage.
Anti-Skid paving is especially effective under black-ice and rain conditions. Further, colored paving is an effective visual stimulator to urge drivers to reduce speed. It can be used effectively in different areas.

The photo on the right and that below shows the Anti-Skid paving in Hitsujigaoka Boulevard, in Sapporo City.
