The waste generated from plastic and its disposal is a major trouble to our environment, resulting in pollution and global warming. The use of plastic waste in bituminous roads/pavements enhances its properties and its strength. In Addition, it will be boon for India as a solution to manage plastic disposal and various defects in roads/pavements viz., ruts, potholes corrugation, etc. The plastic waste used are polythene, poly-styrene, and poly-propylene. The waste plastic is cut up & coated over aggregate & mixed with hot bitumen and resulted mix is used for road/pavement construction. This will not only strengthen the pavement but also increases its durability. This innovative technology will also be suitable for Indian hot-humid climate. It is eco-friendly as well as economical. In this paper, we have discussed the method of using plastic waste in construction of roads and how it is better than the ordinary roads. This project is a comparative study of normal bitumen and waste plastic added bitumen.
