Reducing Maintenance Costs for a Municipal Road Network

Client: City Public Works Department
Challenge: The city was facing high maintenance costs due to recurring pothole formation and surface cracks on key urban roads. Their goal was to find a cost-effective, long-term resurfacing solution.

Solution: Asphalt Roadway’s team conducted a detailed pavement condition survey, identified underlying drainage issues, and recommended a polymer-modified asphalt overlay. The project was executed during off-peak hours to minimize traffic disruption.

Results:

• 40% reduction in annual road maintenance costs
• Extended pavement life by 8–10 years
• Improved ride quality, resulting in positive public feedback from over 90% of surveyed residents

Key Takeaway: Strategic material selection and preventive maintenance design can significantly reduce long-term expenses while boosting public satisfaction.
