How can I prevent asphalt pavement deterioration and prolong its lifespan?
Regular maintenance is key to preventing asphalt pavement deterioration and extending its lifespan. This includes routine inspections, prompt repair of cracks and potholes, sealcoating every 2-3 years, proper drainage management, and regular sweeping to remove debris and prevent water accumulation, which can weaken the pavement over time. Additionally, avoiding heavy loads and abrasive chemicals can help preserve the integrity of the asphalt surface.
