To minimize the effects of traffic congestions, a method with the speedy construction and lower user impact cost is needed. This paper introduces a relatively new pavement construction method lately developed in United States. The method is called Precast Prestressed Concrete Pavement (PPCP.) PPCP sustains a life-cycle pavement construction project. The state-of-the-art of the PPCP method will be reviewed and compared. Their design concepts, field installation procedures, merits, pitfalls will be discussed. With all the comparative advantages and disadvantages, PPCP is comparatively sustainable. It is inevitable that PPCP will be a vital option for roadway construction in the near future.
