>> Since the blocks are prepared in the factory, they are of very high quality, thus avoiding the difficulties encountered in quality control in the field.
>> Concrete blocks pavements restrict the speed of vehicles to about 
60Km/hr, which is an advantage in city streets and intersections.
>> Because of the rough surface, these pavements are skid-resistant.
>>The block pavements are ideal for intersections where speeds have to be restricted and cornering stresses are high.
the digging and reinstatement of trenches for repairs to utilities is easier in the case of block paving.
>> These pavements are unaffected by the spillage of oil from vehicles and are ideal for bus stops, bus depots and parking areas.
>> They are preferred in heavily loaded areas like container depots and ports as they can be very well designed to withstand the high stresses induced there.
>> The cost of maintenance is much lower than a bituminous surface.
>> Block pavement does not need in-site curing and so can be opened to traffic soon after completion of construction.
>> Maintenance of block pavement is simple and easy. Also, the need for frequency of maintenance is low as compared to bituminous pavement.
>> Unlike concrete pavements, block pavement does not exhibit deterioration effect due to thermal expansion and contraction, and are free from the cracking phenomenon.
