74 Use low embodied energy
materials where they are
cost and performance
competitive and
comparable in
environmental
performance.
75 Use low embodied energy
materials where they are

competitive and
comparable in
environmental performance
76 Use recycled materials
where they are cost and
performance competitive
and comparable in
environmental
performance.
77 Maintain and reduce
vehicle emissions for the
whole proposal.
Revise work activities should the dust control measures
prove ineffective.
Consider using biofuels or lower emission fuels during
construction (eg e10).
Purchase materials with low embodied energies where practical
in accordance with Road and Maritime purchasing policy.
Ensure the detailed design considers opportunities to reduce
construction material quantities.
Use recycled materials where possible and failing that use
materials with a high recycled content.
Aim to reduce the proposal’s transport footprint (haul distance)
by purchasing materials and disposing of waste locally.
