20 Presto VEGETATED GREEN SHOULDER Reduce PM10 Reduce truck turbulent kinetic energy (i.e. dust control) Erosion control Reduce wind/water erosion thus minimizing drop-off Green shoulder requires fines and moisture, which makes the shoulder weak for traffic loading. Geosynthetic reinforcement is expected to make shoulder stronger. 20

35 CONCLUDING REMARKS Geosynthetic erosion mats or geocells with vegetation minimize soil erosion. Geosynthetic reinforcement enhances surficial slope stability. Geosynthetic reinforcement does not affect vegetation growth. The surface soil does not have significant effect on the leaf blade length, but does affect the vegetation density. Geosynthetic reinforcement increases load capacities of unpaved roads Geosynthetic reinforcement is expected to provide a sustainable solution for vegetated slopes and green shoulders. 35
