“…Even though high-thermalconductivity asphalt mixtures were used in the middle and bottom layers, it was still difficult to increase the heat absorption of the pavement. If this structure is used in urban areas, more heat will be released to the atmosphere, which is adverse to the urban heat island effect [27].…”

“…The effects of the width requirement on urban form, the housing market, the natural environment, social life, and traffic safety have been well documented (Southworth and Ben-Joseph 2003;Golden and Kaloush 2006;Arnold and Gibbons 2006;Frazer 2005;Swift, Painter, and Goldstein 2002). These streets are the outcome of residential street standards that require the minimum pavement width (thereafter width requirement) and section designs of street.…”

This paper examines the parking mandate in residential street standards in the United States. Based on literature review and a national survey of ninety-seven principal cities in the top fifty-two metro areas, it reveals two unjustified assumptions behind the mandate: traffic lanes must maintain continuous alignment even with limited, slow traffic; and parking demand must be satisfied with dedicated parking lanes in absence of price. The mandate is likely to force markets to oversupply parking and undersupply housing. The paper calls for removal of the parking mandate from street standards and deregulation of the residential street parking market.

“…The literature has shown that both pavement age and type have an influence on the albedo. The expected albedo range for a typical asphalt pavement is 0.05 to 0.20; the range for a typical concrete pavement is 0.25 to 0.46 [75][76][77][78][79][80]. Aged asphalt pavements tend to have higher albedo, while the opposite is true for concrete pavements [75].…”

This report provides a critical review of existing literature and modeling tools related to lifecycle assessment (LCA) applied to pavements. The review finds that pavement LCA is an expanding but still limited research topic in the literature, and that the existing body of work exhibits methodological deficiencies and incompatibilities that serve as barriers to the widespread utilization of LCA by pavement engineers and policy makers. This review identifies five key issues in the current body of work: inconsistent functional units, improper system boundaries, imbalanced data for asphalt and cement, use of limited inventory and impact assessment categories, and poor overall utility. This review also identifies common data and modeling gaps in pavement LCAs that should be addressed in future work. These gaps include: the use phase (rolling resistance, albedo, carbonation, lighting, leachate, and tire wear and emissions), asphalt fumes, feedstock energy of bitumen, traffic delay, the maintenance phase, and the end-of-life phase. This review concludes with a comprehensive list of recommendations for future research, which shed light on where improvements in knowledge can be made that will benefit the accuracy and comprehensiveness of pavement LCAs moving forward.
