This paper discusses the engineering properties of waste glass (WG), including its structural and environmental performance, as an alternative material for the construction of various types of paving systems, including asphalt, concrete, and block pavements. As a first step, an overview of the asphalt, cement, and glass manufacturing industries is provided. Then, a large volume of data is analyzed from various sources in the literature. Particular emphasis is given to laboratory studies of the structural performance and durability of WG. Additionally, the effect of WG on the field performance of the pavements is discussed. The sustainability of the pavements is also evaluated in terms of energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, safety, and the heat island phenomenon. In conclusion, the use of WG can improve various phases of pavement life and structure by enhancing the structural performance, durability, environmental friendliness, and aesthetic features of pavements.
