Development of green pavement rating system in the UAE
Abstract
Many initiatives have been carried out to establish green rating systems that encourage sustainable transportation systems' design and management. However, some studies showed a remarkable lack of understanding of these systems, which led to a lack of confidence in adopting them. This research developed a transportation rating system with a primary focus on asphalt pavement that is mainly used on local roads in the UAE. Based on the experiences and practices applied in the UAE, the main pavement-related areas considered in this study were: pavement materials, structural design, construction, performance & maintenance, and management. International sustainable rating systems were reviewed to identify the practices that fall under each area. The selected sustainable practices were then verified with local pavement experts to ensure that the chosen practices fit the local sector conditions. Consequently, a detailed survey was conducted considering around 50 participants among the top local pavement experts in the UAE to determine each pavement practice's relative importance and weight under the considered areas. Finally, a well-established decision-making tool, i.e., the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), was utilized to assign the final weights of the considered pavement practices. The developed system is named the Green Pavement Rating System (GPRS-UAE), which has four levels of certifications: bronze (33 to 66 points), silver (67 to 98 points), gold (100 to 131points), and platinum (> 131points). The proposed rating system is considered one of the first initiatives in the UAE; therefore, it is anticipated to assist local practitioners in delivering better sustainable asphalt pavements.
