How Denver’s Winter Freeze-Thaw Cycles Impact Asphalt Durability
November 19, 2025
Denver’s high-altitude climate makes it one of the most challenging regions in the United States for asphalt pavement longevity. Each winter, fluctuating temperatures cause frequent freeze-thaw cycles, where melted snow seeps into tiny pavement cracks, freezes overnight, expands, and thaws again. This constant expansion and contraction places repeated stress on asphalt surfaces, leading to cracking,
