  • The Public Works Authority in Qatar (Ashghal) has implemented a pilot "cool pavement" project in Doha, Qatar.
  • It involves the use of a cryogenic material to reduce the temperature of the bitumen on roads.
  • The 'cool pavement', reflecting about 50 percent of sunlight, consists of four layers of a primary material, followed by three layers of materials that reduce heat absorbed by solar radiation.
