Recycling Roads Saves Time, Money, and Resources. Failing streets, roads, and highways are a constant problem for cities, counties and highway agencies. Many aging road systems need rehabilitation or reconstruction. The problem: years of building low-cost roadways with unbound bases and thin asphalt surfacing doom pavements to early distress and failure.

The most efficient and economical way to rehabilitate these failed flexible pavements is to recycle the existing roadway with cement. Small amounts of cement will bind these granular materials together to form a semi-rigid base that will serve to carry traffic for a long time. The process uses base materials and the aggregates in the asphalt surface.

It allows the user to continue to use the existing roadway while fixing more miles than conventional replacement allows. It also conserves materials that are used for new pavements. This web site will give you the tools, information and resources necessary to initiate your own recycling program or build upon your existing one. Let the Road Recycling Council be your technical resource for your project design and construction.
