A new driveway takes a good amount of preparation and planning before installation to get everything ready. One of the main decisions you need to make is which material you’ll use for your driveway. There are many different driveway materials, and the type you select depends on your needs. To help you decide, here are the factors you should keep in mind.
Consider Durability and Life Span
Your driveway is a long-term investment, so you want it to last. That’s why choosing durable and long-lasting materials is so important—your driveway should stand the test of time. However, some materials may be overkill on durability and will cost you more money than you need to spend on a driveway for small vehicles.
Installation Costs
The cost of installation should also factor into your material decisions. Consider every element of the installation price, including the cost of labor and the material itself. To save the most money, choose a material that meets all your requirements while costing as little as possible.
Maintenance Requirements
Driveways need maintenance to stay in top shape over the years, but every material has different maintenance processes. Cement pavement needs regular cleaning, and winter can be a hassle, especially when there’s ice on the driveway. However, certain materials make winter maintenance easier. For example, permeable driveways make ice and snow removal simple because they let water drain so puddles don’t freeze over the surface. The less maintenance necessary, the more money you can save.
Home Appeal
A driveway also has a big effect on your home’s curb appeal. You want a material that will look good in front of your house for years to come. With this asset, your home’s value will go up.
These are all the factors you should keep in mind when looking for a material for your driveway. Before you shop, determine what you’re looking for in a driveway and find the material that best matches your needs.

United Nations Video: Iraq: Progress on the rise despite challenges - Security Council Briefing | United Nations
The Head of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI) Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert today (16 May) told the Security Council that “we are, so to speak, witnessing an Iraq on the rise,”and said that despite challenges, “it is high time to judge the country on progress made, and to turn the page on the darker images of Iraq’s past.”
Hennis-Plasschaert said those challenges include “corruption, factionalism, impunity, undue interference in state functions and armed actors operating outside state control” adding that “while the Government is tackling these scourges, they still represent major hurdles to be overcome.”
She said, “feelings of marginalization and exclusion, which are spreading in and among certain components,” if left unaddressed, “risk fanning the flames of intra- and inter-community tension.”
Hennis-Plasschaert noted that this summer “will mark a sombre anniversary: 10 years since Da’esh committed a genocide against the Yazidi people.”
She expressed hope “that the upcoming 10th anniversary will not be wasted but rather used - by all authorities, actors and stakeholders - to unite and step up to the plate with the sole aim of serving the people of Sinjar.”
The Head of UNAMI told the Council that “dealing with both the legacy of the past and the many challenges of the present will take time,” and warned that “nothing is irreversible.”
Yet, she said, “while the country has teetered on the edge, several times, it has found a way to step back from the brink, to continue its journey forward.”
For his part, Iraqi Ambassador Abbas Kadhom Obaid Al-Fatlawi said, “the government of Iraq requests that UNAMI’s work be concluded by December 31 2025. And its work until that time must focus on completing its work and the files of economic reform, service delivery, sustainable development, climate change, and other developmental matters. It must work on completing its liquidation and achieving a responsible and full drawdown by 2025.”
UNAMI was established by Security Council resolution 1500 in 2003 at the request of the Government of Iraq, revised under resolution 1770 in 2007 and has since been extended on an annual basis.
The current mandate of UNAMI encompasses a number of key areas, including the provision of advice, support and assistance to the Government and the people of Iraq on advancing inclusive political dialogue and national and community-level reconciliation; electoral support; as well as facilitating regional dialogue and cooperation; promoting accountability and the protection of human rights and judicial and legal reform; gender mainstreaming; and promoting coordination and facilitating, in coordination with the Government of Iraq, delivery in the humanitarian and development areas.
Furthermore, under Security Council resolution 2107 of 2013, UNAMI is mandated to promote, support and facilitate efforts of the Government of Iraq regarding the repatriation or return of all Kuwaiti and third-country nationals, or their remains, and the return of Kuwaiti property, including the national archives.

Plastic not fantastic - Episode 1 - UN Weekly
On the first episode of UN Weekly, Conor Lennon and Myra Lopes focus on the effect of the climate crisis on small island developing States (SIDS), which are struggling to cope with hurricanes, flooding and wildfires.
Island nations are also drowning in plastic, which is washing up on beaches, clogging rivers and, for the most part, is not recyclable and takes hundreds of years to break down.
The team are joined by Deandre Williamson from Bahamas Broadcasting, and May Yaacoub from the UN office for SIDS and least developed countries, to look at global UN-led efforts to get to grips with the problem, and how a once-in-a-decade event in Antigua can help them to fight back the plastic tide.
Studio production was by Alan Adair, Jiayi Wang and Carlos Macias. The editor was Andrea Ocampo, the Executive Producer was Mita Hosali. UN Weekly is a UN News production.

Further bad weather is hampering rescue efforts in southern Brazil, where flooding has left vast areas underwater.
In the three weeks since the storms first hit the state of Rio Grande do Sul, at least 150 people have died, and 600,000 have been forced to leave their homes.
With many roads underwater or flooded, rescue flights are currently the only way of delivering food and aid to people still trapped and of transporting people to hospital – but it's not without its risks.

In October last year, 45-year-old Ahmed Alid stabbed Iranian Christian convert Javed Nouri at the house he was sharing with other asylum seekers before looking for more victims in Hartlepool town centre.
He then stabbed and killed 70-year-old Terence Carney who was out for his regular early morning walk. Alid told police he had committed his crimes out of “revenge” for Israel killing children in the Palestinian conflict.
