Abstract:The need to reduce fuel consumption and conserve natural resources have been items of ever-increasing importance during recent years. This report discusses a project in which almost 50,000 tons of asphalt concrete placed to carry detour traffic during a freeway reconstruction were subsequently salvaged and recycled to overlay a section of State secondary highway. The material was stockpiled for about two years while plans for the pavement project were developed.
Assistance was provided by the Federal Highway Administration's Demonstration Project Division to subsidize the cost of some of the recycled asphalt concrete and to cover costs of evaluation for the project. The work was included under Demonstration Project No. 39, "Recycling Asphalt Pavements".
