• Safe—Asphalt pavements offer high skid resistance and provide high contrast in color between asphalt pavement and road markers, giving drivers better road visibility in any weather condition.  Open-graded asphalt, a special type of road surface, can minimize splash and spray during rainstorms and reduce crashes and fatalities on highways. Asphalt pavement materials also eliminate potentially dangerous and expensive pavement blowups.

• Smooth—Asphalt pavements provide a more uniform surface unmatched by other pavements. Smooth roads are safer because rough, uneven surfaces increase driver fatigue and diminish control. Smooth asphalt roads also reduce rolling resistance (the friction between tires and pavement), which means better fuel economy and reduced carbon dioxide emissions. Smooth roads allow superior contact with vehicle tires for a safer (and more enjoyable) ride.

• Cost-Effective—Smooth roads aren’t just safer, they also save money. Reduced wear and tear on vehicles due to fewer bumps in the road brings down vehicle operating costs. Also, increasing a roadway’s smoothness by 25% extends its lifespan—upwards of 10 percent—which saves money. Asphalt roads can be built more quickly and cost-effectively than other pavements as well, and they can be designed as a Perpetual Pavement that needs only periodic maintenance to remain in good shape indefinitely.

• Attractive—Many hours are spent designing aesthetically pleasing infrastructure and great curb appeal starts with an asphalt pavement. A new road is an investment in the appearance of our communities and in the safety of our citizens. Asphalt pavements have no built-in, unsightly cracks. They blend with and enhance the natural surroundings.

• Quiet—Roadway noise is a distraction in your car and at home. Asphalt roads can reduce noise by as much as seven decibels. For scale of reference, reducing noise by just three decibels is the equivalent to doubling the distance from the source of the noise to the listener. Asphalt roads also reduce the need for costly and unsightly sound barriers, often exceeding $2 million per mile.
