Mastering the Art of Asphalt Paving: Top 3 Remarkable Projects Transforming the Industry

The Noise-Reducing Asphalt Project

Noise pollution is a significant concern in urban areas, and the Noise-Reducing Asphalt project in Denmark aims to address this issue. This project involves the use of a special type of asphalt, known as "quiet asphalt," which can reduce traffic noise by up to 50%.

Quiet asphalt is made by incorporating rubber granules from recycled tires into the asphalt mix. These rubber granules have noise-absorbing properties, reducing the noise produced by vehicles driving on the road. The project has been successful in significantly reducing noise pollution in urban areas, improving the quality of life for residents. It also demonstrates the potential for asphalt paving to play a role in addressing environmental and social issues.
