A. The performance of Rubberized Asphalt pavement using the different process which we have used over the last 13 years, shows a noticeable reduction in cracking and rutting compared to conventional asphalt. Some projects have not done as well in other parts of Canada but I blame this on lack of quality control. There is no difference in Rubberized Asphalt mixes compared to conventional asphalt in that there has to be quality control checks. In Grey County, I have always had good quality control. I also have good comparisons on my projects because on every project I always do a section of road using conventional asphalt. This gives us a good comparison when comparing rubber to conventional asphalt mixes.
