Introduction
The European Road Federation (ERF) defined sustainable roads as:
Effectively and efficiently planned, designed, built, operated, upgraded and preserved
roads by means of integrated policies respecting the environment and still providing the expected
socio-economic services in terms of mobility and safety.
Make a sustainable decision means to consider not only the infrastructure life-cycle costs, but also
environmental and social impacts: it means to be able to choose a good technical solution, which
allows to work with limited resources to achieve the project objectives, balancing competing
priorities.
Each stakeholder, in fact, is motivated by their own interests. As a result, the perceptions on
benefits, priorities and on what constitutes sustainable road infrastructure development vary
accordingly.
Therefore, to achieve infrastructure sustainability, understanding varying perceptions and needs,
integrating them into the design and delivery of road projects becomes crucial at present time.
