Surface-EXT reinforces surface treatments to help agencies extend pavement life, reduce lifecycle
costs, and preserve more roadway miles with existing funding — allowing agencies to spend dimes,
not dollars.
Agencies across the country are responsible for more roadway miles than ever — while funding struggles to keep pace. Many pavements are already years behind ideal maintenance schedules. Waiting until failure only increases long-term costs and limits how many miles can be preserved. The challenge isn’t effort. It’s how early you intervene.
Traditional “worst-to-first” strategies focus on fixing what has already failed.
Preservation-first strategies focus on protecting what still has value.
By intervening earlier, agencies can: – Extend pavement service life – Reduce lifecycle costs – Preserve more roadway miles – Delay costly reconstruction
Preservation isn’t about doing less work — it’s about doing the right work at the right time.
Surface treatments are a critical part of pavement preservation — but performance under traffic and real-
world conditions matters.
Surface-EXT is designed to reinforce surface treatments, helping them perform longer and deliver
greater value over time.
The result:
Surface-EXT was developed to support modern pavement management strategies focused on preservation,
performance, and value.
It doesn’t replace existing practices — it reinforces them so preservation efforts last longer and deliver
stronger returns.
Spend Dimes, Not Dollars Starts with the Right Conversation Every roadway network is different.
Preservation priorities, traffic demands, and funding constraints vary by agency.
If preservation or surface treatments are part of your current or future planning, a short conversation can
help determine where reinforcement may add value.
