Abstract:
In India, the growing demand for sustainable road infrastructure has prompted an urgent need to assess the environmental impact of asphalt pavement construction. This study utilizes a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology to evaluate the environmental implications associated with asphalt pavement, from the production of raw materials to construction and maintenance stages. It emphasizes the impacts on greenhouse gas emissions, nonrenewable resource consumption, and ecological degradation, with a focus on regional challenges posed by climatic and geographical variations in India. By comparing various asphalt mixes through multicriteria analysis, this study identifies optimal solutions to mitigate environmental consequences, fostering sustainable infrastructure development in line with Indian road expansion initiatives.
