Resiliency
Concrete Pavement is Resilient. It doesn’t have to be quickly repaired after a flood, fire or tornado. Concrete roads are ready to help your community respond. When you need a safe road think concrete. When you are building in a flood plain or on an evacuation route don’t settle for less.
Resiliency
Saves Energy and Fuel
Most People don’t realize that concrete saves energy in several ways. First the rigid structure of the concrete provides a surface that saves fuel. Second, when you look at the energy required to place a concrete pavement compared to other pavements, it is usually 15-20% less as a first build cost, helping to reduce the environmental footprint.
Saves Energy and Fuel
Non-Petroleum Based
Concrete Pavement is not petroleum based. It is produced locally with minimal impact to the environment. Once placed concrete pavement does not have oil and other pollutants disperse into the air, its environmentally friendly.
Non-Petroleum Based
Sustainable - CO2 Absorber
Once placed concrete pavement starts to absorb CO2 out of the air. It helps reduce greenhouse gas and does not disperse any petroleum distillates into the air. Concrete Pavement is also 100% recyclable often on or near the current paving location.
Sustainable – CO2 Absorber
Healthy for Cities
Concrete Pavement is healthy for cities. It reduced heat island impacts, absorbs smog and CO2 and lasts longer. It provides safer conditions, requiring less energy to light concrete paved areas, and concrete lasts longer. When you need a safe paving area, think concrete.
Healthy for Cities
Preferred by the Public
The pavement of choice is concrete pavement. Its smoother, its quieter, it is safer, with shorter braking distances as well as better light reflectivity. When you need a safe road, for the best driving experience, think concrete.
