| Concrete
lasts longer with less need for maintenance and
repair! No potholes - so concrete pavements
stay smoother longer.
No ruts form to fill with water and cause wet
weather accidents. There are fewer traffic interruptions
for repair and maintenance.
The average life expectancy of concrete pavement
is 27.5 years before repair while asphalt pavements
have an average life expectancy of only 15.5 years
before repair.
Concrete is
quiet!
After years of testing and research, concrete
paving designs and techniques make concrete roads
as quiet as most asphalt roads, while maintaining
superior skid resistance.
Concrete is environmentally
friendly!
- Concrete is completely recyclable.
- Concrete doesn't release odorous petroleum
products into the air.
- Concrete conserves oil, which is used to
produce asphalt pavements.
Concrete is aesthetically
pleasing!
Concrete pavements have a clean appearance and
brighten neighborhoods, both day and night! Concrete
can be colored and textured to produce attractive
designs and patterns.
