Asphalt is widely used for highways, streets, and airports because it is cost-effective, versatile and safe. As a 100% recyclable product, asphalt is more sustainable and less costly compared to other pavement materials. Asphalt is a flexible pavement choice that can be designed for a variety of uses, to carry various traffic volumes and loads. Its smooth ride and high contrast to pavement markings offer safety benefits to the traveling public.
