Abstract
There has been a dramatic growth in asphalt in-place recycling over the last 30 years. Besides providing significant savings on resurfacing projects, asphalt recycling meets all of our societal goals of providing safe, efficient roadways while reducing both the environmental impact and energy (oil) consumption compared to conventional pavement reconstruction. When properly applied, it has long-term economic benefits.
