Poroelastic Road Surfaces (PERS) are characterized by porous structure with at least 20% of air void content and stiffness almost 10 times lower than typical asphalt course. Such properties enable noise reduction up to 12 dB in comparison to SMA 11 mixture. However, the main disadvantage of previously used poroelastic mixtures, based on resin type binders, was their low durability, which resulted in raveling and delamination from the lower layer. This paper presents initial results obtained for new type of PERS mixture, based on highly modified bitumen as a binder instead of resin type binder. The direct shear test was applied to estimate resistance of the mixture to raveling as well as to evaluate interlayer bond quality. Observations of first short test sections with different compositions of new PERS mixtures yielded promising results.
