Phoenix Tests Cool Pavement for Heat Relief | Phoenix News

Phoenix is rolling out 200 miles of “cool pavement” — a titanium dioxide-coated gray surface designed to reflect sunlight and slash street heat. After a previous version peeled off in a storm, the city’s back with improved tech, hoping for lasting results. Residents like Trish welcome any relief for kids struggling in the heat, while others note mixed results — some say it doesn’t cool enough during peak sun, but others report faster cooling after sunset, extending outdoor playtime. The city admits this isn’t a cure-all, but every degree counts in their fight against extreme heat. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
