Sustainability • Less disruption • Smooth surface – 40% IRI improvement, 265 in/mi to 165 in/mi
• Less use of raw materials – One half existing pavement reuse – One half added pavement at 25% RAP
Final product 60%+ recycled material August 6, 2014

Economics • • • •
Reduced Mill/Prep Reduced raw materials Reduced hauling Unit cost $1 to $2 per sy less than m&o
Life cycle cost savings of 6%-10% Compared to mill and overlay August 6, 2014
