In this study, different types of pavements for the roads planned to be built in Manisa province are discussed and suggestions are presented for the most effective use of the public budget allocated for road construction. First, a sample road route connecting the neighborhoods in Manisa was selected. The determined road route is the neighborhood road that connects Alaşehir and Salihli districts, parallel to the highway with control section number D585. In the route considered as an example, a cross-section determination was made for each pavement type. The thickness of the determined sections, including the foundation layers, was found for surface coating, bituminous hot mix coating, and roller-compacted concrete coating. After the section determination, a cost per m² study was carried out for each type of coating with the institution's prices. As a result of the cost study, the required amount for the construction of 1 m² surface coating is 250.46 TL, 280.60 TL for hot bituminous coating and 363.32 TL for roller compacted concrete coating. In addition, a mechanistic analysis of pavement types was carried out and the behavior of the designed sections under 11,5 tons/axle load was investigated. The determined sections were modeled in ANSYS, a finite element package program. As a result of the mechanistic analysis of the pavement types, it was observed that 0.42 mm deformation occurred in surface coatings, 0.15 mm deformation in bituminous hot mix coating and 0.017 mm deformation in the rigid coating. As a result of the study, it has been revealed that the most appropriate pavement type to be made on the neighborhood (village) roads in Manisa is surface coating.
