A method of this kind has been described. Only the actual tracks are refilled in this known method, whereas the roadway strip lying between two neighbouring tracks is not renewed (German Specification No. is DE-A-25 24 762).
The invention also relates to a device for carrying out the method. In this connection an apparatus is known which comprises two stripping-laying apparatus graders which are arranged at a distance from one another laterally of the working direction and serve to fill two adjacent tracks. The strip of roadway lying between the graders is not therefore covered by this apparatus as well, as a result of which this intermediate strip remains at the original, low road level as compared with the inner edges of the asphalt strips filling the tracks.
According to this prior art, pools of water, which may give rise to accidents, are often formed between the two inner edges of the track-filling material, laid in strips, as a result of rain or melted snow. Road users are also presented with a disturbing optical effect, caused by the two separate asphalt tracks.
