Material transportation of the road construction project has had some negative impact on the environment, one of which is the release of greenhouse gas emissions. In an attempt to develop sustainable strategy, there is a need to identify and quantitatively evaluate the GHG emission reduction opportunities that exist in material transportation of the rigid pavement life cycle. The aims of this study is to estimate and evaluate the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the rigid pavement material transportation process unit. The life cycle assessment was used to estimate the greenhouse gases emissions. The evaluation of greenhouse gas emission reductions is not only on the percentage of the reduction, but also on the cost effectiveness of the reduction. The cost effectiveness analysis (CEA) was used to calculate cost effectiveness. The result shows that a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in the variation of the use of dump trucks in the rigid pavement material transportation process unit ranged from 2.89% to 6.24%. Each alternative to reducing emissions has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at a cost comparable to reduced emission.
