Abstract

The movement of people and goods has been a primitive and eternal need for centuries. Mankind has been moving from place to place in a continuous and lasting struggle for economic survival. To hunt and explore new lands, or to hunt down enemies to find shelters, humanity has been urged to draw and build safe and secure paths, which has led to the development of permanent roads. Road construction around the world, including India, has chronological technological developments. Technological advancements in civil engineering and material usage for the construction of roads has paved way for the development of sustainable roads. This paper reviews recent developments in the construction of bituminous pavements.
