What is Low Noise Road Surface Design Criteria about?
The report outlines research conducted by Land Transport New Zealand on fatigue design criteria for low noise surfaces on roads, focusing on Open Graded Porous Asphalt (OGPA). It emphasizes the need for modern mechanistic design practices to improve pavement performance and reduce traffic noise, following two accelerated pavement tests at the Canterbury facility. Key findings indicate that deformation may lead to surface failure before fatigue occurs, necessitating a reevaluation of existing design guidelin
