Comparison of Concrete Pavement and Asphalt Pavement on the Bendung-Bantengan Road Section in Mojokerto District

Road infrastructure development is a vital aspect in supporting the economic and social growth of a region. Choosing the right type of pavement has a significant impact on cost efficiency, construction time, and road durability. This research aims to compare the specifications, costs, and implementation time of concrete and asphalt pavements on the Bendung-Bantengan road section in Mojokerto Regency. The method used is a quantitative descriptive approach with primary data collection through field surveys, CBR tests, and LHR measurements, as well as secondary data from project documents and technical literature. The results showed that concrete pavement has higher load resistance and service life with an initial cost of IDR 2,491,113,679 and an implementation time of 108 days, while asphalt pavement is more flexible with a faster implementation time (125 days) but has a higher cost (IDR 3,360,913,041) and requires more frequent maintenance. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of a life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) approach in the decision-making process of selecting the type of pavement, to create sustainable, efficient, and economical road construction.
