Abstract: Nigeria roads are bad, during the oil boom years of the seventies, a period of unprecedented road construction was witnessed. Many of such roads, though already approaching the end of their lives were not designed to withstand today`s traffic loadings and some that were for one reason or the other are failing prematurely. These roads have to be strengthened or fully reconstructed-a costly and time consuming exercise involving long delays to traffic. As traffic volumes steadily increase, the problems can only get worse, more so the dwindling economic fortunes of our country does not give room for the proper funding of the maintenance and development of our road network any longer. The possibility of recycling roads made with asphalt is a plus, most especially as it is well favoured by �green campaigners, however, will it convince the naturally conservative highway engineers and as well be �sellable` to the government and people of Nigeria? This study presents a relatively new concept in road reconstruction/rehabilitation, quicker and cheaper than traditional methods and according to research, capable of performing just as well. Adopting this method, might be saving the country 200 billion Naira + over the next ten years going by the road recovery programme and as well be the country`s local contribution to Agenda 21 of the UN resolutions on Environment and Development as it maintains and promotes a healthy, safe and sustainable environment, while still achieving the goal of development and maintenance of engineering infrastructure.
