PoroElastic Road SUrface: an innovation to Avoid Damages to the Environment (PERSUADE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2015,
Low-noise road surfaces are recognized as a cost-effective tool for traffic noise abatement. The best performance can be achieved by optimizing surface texture and porosity. That way, a bottom line of a 3dB lifetime average reduction with respect to ordinary asphalt has been reached. Any progress must resort to another noise-relevant characteristic i.e. elasticity by which the noise due to tyre v ...

Re-road – End of life strategies of asphalt pavements (Re-road)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The majority of the European roads are paved with asphalt material. The dismantling and end of life strategies for these pavements are very divergent among the EU member states and the associated countries. In general the share of recycling the reclaimed asphalt in new asphalt courses is rather lower than it could be technically. The Re-road project aims to address these problems with a holistic ...

DISmantling and RECycling Techniques for road MATerials - Sharing knowledge and practices (DIRECT_MAT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,
"The DIREC_MAT project objective is to share, at a European scale, knowledge and practices on recycling road and road-related waste in the aim of ensuring an environmentally-friendly and sustainable end-of-life for road infrastructure. Road material recycling processes have previously been studied in national and European research projects and have led to various levels of practical implementation ...
