Taxpayers, Agencies and Concrete Industry Benefit Through "Competition Paves"

State and local officials are under great pressure to demonstrate good stewardship of roadway infrastructure investments. PCA, ACPA and NRMCA have worked together with member support to put in place an ongoing program for the benefit of public officials, taxpayers and the traveling public to help move pavement selection guidelines in a direction that enhances competition. States, counties and municipalities can expect to see an increasing "bang for the buck" as market share moves away from dominance by a single paving material. The three national associations have collaborated to create an ongoing "Competition Paves" campaign, including a Web site with many articles and documents. Also available are a variety of support materials on the benefits of increased competition to carry the message to specifiers.
