Bull dust

Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-000838

A fine, powdery soil found in arid regions, particularly in Australia, that can accumulate on unpaved roads. When disturbed by vehicles, it creates dense clouds of dust that severely reduce visibility and can pose a hazard to drivers. This material often fills potholes and ruts, making road surfaces appear deceptively smooth.
