The Carbon Footprint of Asphalt
Environmental consciousness is on the rise and many transportation officials are striving to make their practices and policies greener or more sustainable. But how do you measure the greenness of a pavement?
It’s all about the carbon — how, when, and whether it is counted.
This paper has examined greenhouse gas production of asphalt and concrete pavements. The tools
employed in these analyses are based on published materials from ISO 14040, VicRoads, and the Ministry
of Transportation for Ontario. In every case, the analyses show clearly that asphalt has a far lower
carbon footprint. This means that asphalt pavements are the more sustainable choice. When it comes to
roads, black is green, now and for the future.
