Construction and Inspection of Asphalt State Highways

Letter Report | March 2011

SUMMARY

Through 2009, 184 asphalt highways were constructed under warranties that guarantee pavements will meet contractually specified performance standards. Pavements on 12 of 34 projects we reviewed did not do so during their warranty period. Further, many inspection results were provided to DOT regional offices after warranties had expired.
