%X The creep and fatigue performance of polymer modified and fiber reinforced bituminous mixture was discussed. The creep or deformation was caused by the deformation within the depth of the pavement. It was found that the mixture containing polymer-modified binder gave a lower rut depth compared to the conventional mixtures, indicating the superiority of these mixtures in creep. It was also observed that the incorporation of both polymer additives and synthetic fibres in bituminous mixtures had the potential of improving the fatigue performance of bituminous mixtures.
