The present invention relates to an asphalt composition for road pavement, which is excellent in drying strength, strength after immersion in water, and strength after immersion in petroleum, a method for producing the same, and a road paving method.
[1] An asphalt composition for road pavement, containing asphalt, a polyester resin, and an aggregate, wherein the polyester resin is one subjected to melt-kneading and a ratio of the polyester resin is 5 parts by mass or more and 50 parts by mass or less based on 100 parts by mass of the asphalt; [2] a method for producing an asphalt composition for road pavement, including a step of mixing asphalt, a polyester resin, and an aggregate at 130° C. or higher and 200° C. or lower, wherein the polyester resin used in the mixing step is one subjected to melt-kneading, and a ratio of the polyester resin is 5 parts by mass or more and 50 parts by mass or less based on 100 parts by mass of the asphalt; and [3] a road paving method including a step of laying an asphalt composition obtained by the method of [2], thereby forming an asphalt paving material layer.
