Abstract
The adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by member states of the United Nations in September 2015 now demand countries to align their development agenda towards sustainability based on country specific priorities. For developing countries, progress towards sustainable road infrastructure has generally been sluggish, despite the availability of pertinent technologies to support sustainable development of pavement infrastructure. These technologies incorporate sustainability parameters across the entire pavement life-cycle (design/materials, construction, use, maintenance, and end-of-life). This paper examines the applicability of the road pavement technologies against the sustainability indicators in the context of a developing country.
