Colored Pavement
IRTA using two types of colored pavement to make colorful roads, cycling ways, parking areas etc...
One, generally light-colored, improves the brightness and reflection of light at the surface by making use of a highly
reflective, light-colored aggregate.
The other uses pigments in the asphalt mixture or an artificially colored aggregate to provide variations in the appearance of roads.
IRTA’s colored pavement introduced for a number of reasons: harmony with the surroundings, expression of a local community's individuality, to introduce a sense of liveliness and peace of mind, and to improve safety and comfort.
