Solution

A hauling road is a road specifically designed for transporting materials such as mined minerals, coal, or other mining products from the mining site to processing or storage facilities. This road must be able to withstand the heavy loads and high frequency of large transport trucks, as well as extreme environmental conditions. The construction of a hauling road requires proper planning and maintenance to ensure stability, durability, and safety

The hauling road problems that often occur in the mineral mining industry and their solutions are described below.

Problem: Dusty Road

The issue of dusty roads causing blind spots can significantly increase the risk of accidents in the hauling road area. Excessive dust reduces driver visibility, creating temporary blind spots where drivers cannot see other vehicles, workers, or obstacles on the road. This condition not only endangers the safety of drivers and workers but can also slow down operations and increase maintenance costs due to accidents and equipment damage.

Moreover, continuous exposure to dust can lead to various respiratory problems, such as asthma, bronchitis, and other lung diseases. Dust can also irritate the eyes, skin, and throat, reducing worker comfort and productivity. In the long term, prolonged dust exposure can cause chronic lung diseases and other health issues, increasing worker absenteeism and healthcare costs.
