New runway rubber removal system debuts in Southwest Asia

SOUTHWEST ASIA – An area of the runway is cleaned after a retrofitted Unimog with a TracJet attachment removed rubber from the concrete. Every time an aircraft lands, it deposits thin layers of rubber on the runway. Over time the rubber builds up and poses a risk to landing aircraft, especially in wet conditions.
