The three main options for bituminous pavement rehabilitation are excessive capacity, recycling, and reconstruction. The process of recycling involves reusing some or all of the damaged pavement's material, known as reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), in new construction. As the cost of bitumen binder is rising and polymer waste from different industries are increasing which cause environmental affected. Reuse of a resource such as RAP, lessens the depletion of natural resources, such as natural aggregate and bitumen binder. In the current study, to increase the workability of RAP asphalt mixtures, a softer-graded polymer modified bitumen (PMB) was produced with a 7% styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) copolymer. Marshall hammers were used to produce the asphalt sample at 10, 20, and 30% RAP material. To minimize overhead cost and utilize the polymer waste it in a way, this research would focus on a warranted technique to recycle the Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in making the flexible pavements. A thorough laboratory analysis has been carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of the changed mixture. The results of the primary tests, such as those for penetration, softening points, viscosity, and others, will show that the previously mentioned mixture performs significantly better than the normal mix.
