In this paper, findings are presented regarding the transport involved in the renovation of a residential road of approximately 4800 m2 in the city of Apeldoorn in the Netherlands. The associated emissions were calculated using an existing CO2 calculator, which was adapted to the Dutch context. The loads and distances travelled have been monitored and analysed. Our data show that 389 journeys were made by lorries and construction vehicles during the renovation process, adding up to almost 6000 kg of CO2 emission. These figures do not even include the emissions from staff commuting to and from the site. With this data, we hope to raise awareness of the impact of transport during road construction. Considering that residential roads are constantly being rebuilt in many communities around the world, the results of our study on a typical residential road can have a significant impact and help engineers in similar situations to reduce transport emissions.
