The invention relates to the use of stabilizing body in the construction of roads. The stabilizing body comprises a substantially rigid, planar body ( 20 ) that can be inter-engaged with other similar bodies in a configuration in which an extended, substantially planar stabilizing structure can be formed. Each stabilizing body defines a multi-cellular configuration with cells ( 26 ) defined by side walls extending from the operative top side of the body towards the operative bottom side thereof. The side walls ( 28 ) defining the cells have projecting formations ( 30 ) projecting therefrom into the cells. In use, the wearing course of a road is formed within and above a stabilizing structure formed above the base of the road, with the asphalt composition used filling the cells and being anchored to the stabilizing bodies via the projecting formations, thus forming a wearing course resistant to various different known of road failure.
