About LEED & Urban Heat Island
Standard dark asphalt absorbs the vast majority of solar radiation, contributing directly to the urban heat island effect — the measurable temperature premium that cities carry over surrounding rural areas. This isn't just a comfort issue: it drives air conditioning energy demand, accelerates pavement degradation, and creates dangerous heat conditions for vulnerable populations during summer weather events. StreetBondSR is HUB's high-Solar Reflectance Index coating system — a reflective paving surface treatment that reduces pavement surface temperatures and contributes to LEED v4 Sustainable Sites credit for heat island reduction. The specification for sustainable development projects, climate action plan implementations, and any site team where green building certification and energy performance outcomes matter.
