Drainage grooves rabbeted into the road pavement wearing course are one of them. While the costs of this kind of maintenance are not inconsiderable, the effectiveness of such a solution has not yet been independently evaluated. This paper describes experiments done in the field of assessment of the drainage grooves effectiveness.
