        abstract = {The increasing volume of plastic waste has become a global environmental issue, prompting research into sustainable solutions to mitigate its impact. One such approach is the utilization of waste plastic in road construction, specifically in bituminous pavements. This paper explores the potential benefits and applications of incorporating waste plastic in the construction of bituminous pavement for parking spaces. The study investigates the impact of different types of waste plastic, such as polyethylene and polypropylene, on the mechanical and thermal properties of the asphalt mixture.
The research focuses on evaluating the strength, durability, and resistance to wear of the modified pavement compared to traditional bituminous pavements. The inclusion of plastic waste is expected to enhance the pavement’s resistance to deformation, improve its water resistance, and extend its lifespan, thus offering a dual advantage of waste disposal and improved road infrastructure. A detailed analysis of the composition, mixing process, and performance characteristics is carried out, along with a cost-benefit analysis. The results suggest that the use of waste plastic in bituminous mixtures not only contributes to waste reduction but also enhances the overall performance of the pavement, making it a promising solution for sustainable infrastructure development in urban environments, particularly for parking spaces.},
