4) Pavement Technologies
I. Long Life Pavement Design: This criterion is to ensure that long lasting pavement
structures are designed to reduce life cycle costs(S. Muench et al., 2011)
II. Use of Recyclable Materials in mix design: This criterion is to ensure that
recyclable materials such as recycled concrete aggregate or recycled asphalt
pavement are used in mix design(S. Muench et al., 2011)
III. Permeable Pavement: The objective of this criterion is to ensure that flow
control and quality of storm water runoff can be improved by means of using
permeable pavement technologies (S. Muench et al., 2011)
IV. Use of Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) : This criterion is to ensure minimizing the
use of fossil fuel use at the hot mix asphalt plant as a result causing reduction in
emissions at the plant and reducing the exposure of workers to emission during
placement by using WMA technologies.(S. Muench et al., 2011)
V. Cool Pavements: This criterion is to ensure reduction In urban heat island effect
by use of materials such as albedo (S. Muench et al., 2011)
VI. Quiet Pavement Design: This criterion is concerned with reduction in tire
pavement noise by using open graded hot mix asphalt or by techniques
described by sandberg and ejsmont (2002).(S. Muench et al., 2011)
5) Energy
I. Road Energy Systems: Project Design process should Include Road Energy
systems
6) Environment and Water
I. Reduce Impervious Area: The objective of this criterion is to identify methods to
reduce storm water volumes and pollutants into the adjacent water resources
(Illinois Department of Transportation, 2012)
II. Design Practices to protect Water Quality (Storm Water BMPs):Incorporate
storm water best management practices in the design stage to protect the water
quality (Alsaffar & Lafta, 2016; FHWA, 2012; Illinois Department of
Transportation, 2012)
