Lexington officials say the bluegrass community is home to some of the most environmentally friendly pavement in the country. That’s based on using 45% recycled asphalt pavement on roads. Streets and Roads Director Rob Allen said it’s in line with Lexington’s history.
“I haven’t heard of anybody else in the country doing this and we have folks checking it out. It’s very similar as to what we did as far as you know Lexington…the early adoption of the seatbelt law and of course, the indoor smoking ban,” said Allen.
