Unique Concepts / Green Roadway Construction Why is this a great idea?

Minimize impact on ecosystem/promote sustainability Help Department save money

ex: Recycled materials can create 17% in savings Warm mix asphalt can save $0.35-$5.00/ton Long lasting roads that require less

maintenance Sustainable construction practices can help Department

receive more federal funds and stimulate market Will set precedent in Florida

No Greenroads™ project has ever been constructed in the StateGBF is ready to assist the Department in this new

venture and will assume all the costs associated with this concept
