The purpose of this review is to give an overview of the current status of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) application in France. First, this circular paper presents key figures of RAP application in France in comparison with status in the rest of Europe and in the United States, on the basis of official figures available in 2013. Second, this paper reports how the research and development (R&D) issues related to the use of RAP are currently dealt with in the case of either base courses or surface courses. Third, this paper presents an overview of the upcoming scientific French national project IMPROVMURE (2014-18) dealing with multirecycling (successive recycling cycles) in hot-mix asphalts (HMA) and warm-mix asphalts (WMA). The main question is can asphalt be recycled numerous times and how does it affect its performance and thermo–mechanical behavior?
