- kuschku 9y agoPure concrete leads to significant shifts between the plates over the years, leading to the well-known bump every time you pass between plates. This obviously affects the bus’s suspension, and passengers, negatively. Concrete with asphalt on top of it has the issue of the asphalt having to be replaced frequently. I’m not sure if US interstates with concrete are different, but these were the only options discussed here in Germany.
