ACPA National
The American Concrete Pavement Association (ACPA) is the national trade association for the concrete pavement industry. ACPA is recognized as the voice of the concrete pavement industry, and works closely with industry, the public sector, and academia in its mission to advocate for the use of concrete pavements in highways, airports, streets and roads, and industrial pavements.
In support of its mission, ACPA maintains strong working relationships with its network of ACPA-affiliated Chapter/State paving associations, as well as technology partners, the National Concrete Pavement Technology Center (National CP Tech Center) and the International Grooving & Grinding Association.
