Resurfacing of a cycle path. This path is 4 m wide and four kilometres long without interruption, providing part of a fast cycle route around Assen. The new surface is several inches of asphalt laid on top of proper foundations. The same machines are used to do this as would be used on a road.

It's now much improved since the 2008 study tour which visited this location, though it was actually very impressive then too ( #11713 )

A video of riding along the path before the final layer was put on can be seen here:
