Most road pavements in Brazil are of low quality, safety and comfort. But the drawbacks go far beyond these more visible issues. Among the most important, we can highlight: sliding of asphalt plates caused by infiltrations, sudden narrowing of the track, collapsed barriers and worn bridges. These problems add up to others, causing accidents, delays, and road deaths in Brazil. As a result, the paper aims to present a comparative analysis to demonstrate the feasibility of using rubber asphalt compared to common asphalt. To answer the research objectives, the methodological choice was a bibliographical review of the integrative type. It was emphasized the importance of a study that considered, besides the cost-benefit, the environmental question, the comfort and the safety for the users of paved roads.
