The objective of this workshop is to discuss sustainability in asphalt pavements and compare US and European activities in this field. European countries have been pursuing such goals for many years. The current strong interest in the US compared to the slower-grown and more mature development in Europe means that countries on either side of the Atlantic have taken somewhat different trajectories in research and practice, both of which have their respective strengths and approaches. The workshop will bring together the leading researchers in this field from the US and Europe so as: (1) to compare and contrast best practices in the US, Europe, and other countries, (2) to explore the vital subject of sustainable pavements, and (3) to develop a roadmap of future research needs. In the long term, the collaborations emerging from the workshop will help to (1) create more reliable and sustainable transportation systems, and (2) introduce more sustainability concepts into the Civil Engineering curriculum.

本次研讨会的目的是讨论沥青路面的可持续性，并比较美国和欧洲在这一领域的活动。欧洲国家多年来一直在追求这样的目标。相对于欧洲缓慢而成熟的发展，目前对美国的浓厚兴趣意味着大西洋两岸的国家在研究和实践中采取了不同的轨迹，两者都有各自的优势和方法。研讨会将汇集来自美国和欧洲该领域的领先研究人员，以便：(1)比较和对比美国，欧洲和其他国家的最佳实践，(2)探索可持续路面的重要主题，(3)制定未来研究需求的路线图。从长远来看，研讨会产生的合作将有助于(1)创造更可靠和可持续的交通系统，(2)将更多的可持续发展概念引入土木工程课程。
