The Texas Asphalt Pavement Association is the only Texas association dedicated to asphalt pavements.

TXAPA is committed to improving and growing the asphalt pavement industry by providing its membership of asphalt producers, contractors, liquid asphalt suppliers, and other interested firms with the services and information necessary to maintain a competitive edge. We enhance the standing of asphalt pavement in the construction industry by:

  • Promoting the use and improving the quality of asphalt pavements
  • Maintaining good relations between our members and public bodies, such as TxDOT
  • Encouraging high professional standards through education, research, and open dialogue

Join the voice of the asphalt industry in Texas.

As a TXAPA member, you have a platform to speak directly to the entities that impact our industry, such as TxDOT, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), cities, counties, engineering and architectural firms, and developers. You can amplify your impact through active involvement in one of our many committees.

Our committees are the backbone of the association, providing guidance and oversight to carry out our services and enact changes in the industry. Committee members meet regularly to identify and address key asphalt pavement issues throughout the state, keeping TXAPA at the forefront of progress made on behalf of the industry. Through our committees, our members possess the unique ability to have their voices heard and make an impact not just within the association but on a state-wide scale.

Membership with TXAPA also provides access to technical, promotional, environmental, and legislative services at the national level through our relationships with the Asphalt Institute (AI), the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA), and the Asphalt Pavement Alliance (APA).
