Stone matrix asphalt (SMA) is a gap-graded mix that contains a high concentration of coarse aggregate, thereby maximizing stone-to-stone contact in the mixture and providing an efficient network for load distribution. Coarse aggregate particles are held together by a rich matrix of mineral filler and stabilizer in the thick asphalt film. This paper presents details on the laboratory studies carried out on stone matrix asphalt (SMA) mixtures with natural fibres and crumb rubber modified bitumen (CRMB). Indirect tensile strength, retained stability, resistance to moisture susceptibility, resistance to rutting, resistance to creep, and resistance to permeability and aging were found to improve with SMA mixtures with CRMB when compared with SMA mixtures with fibres as stabilizers.Key words: natural fibres, CRMB, SMA mixtures, draindown, moisture damage, creep, rutting, permeability, aging.
