The International Conference on the Decarbonization of Asphalt Pavements aims to explore innovative solutions and best practices for reducing the carbon footprint associated with asphalt pavements.

Researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and industry experts are invited to submit abstracts by Nov. 27.

A report from the Airport Asphalt Pavement Technology Program (AAPTP) aims to simplify the asphalt binder selection process for airfield flexible pavement designs.

There is still time to be recognized for the use of best practices in asphalt plant operations, terminal operations, asphalt production, and paving.
