LOW-COST BICYCLE PATH PAVEMENTS

The proposed research involves an analytic and experimental investigation to develop realistic design criteria for bicycle path pavements. The research also included evaluation of specific designs and innovative low-cost material systems for use in bicycle path pavements. An extensive literature review of currently existing and experimental bikepath pavement was also included. Results from this report indicate that the strength and durability of Class I bidepath pavements can be improved and the construction cost can be reduced through better design and construction practices and use of low-cost material systems. /Author/
