The length of road network in Indonesia continues to increase gradually in every year. This increase will influence an availability of natural resources as the formation materials of road structures. For that, it is necessary to develop a green road concept that is able to reduce the use of natural resources and minimize the occurrence of waste materials generated. This concept is an ongoing movement that targets the construction of the planning, implementation, and usage of environmentally friendly construction products, efficient in energy and resource usage, and low cost and the achievement of appropriate construction quality. Increased waste materials in the construction process is one aspect that must be minimized in order to achieve the concept of green roads. This study aims to analyze the relationship and influence the factors of application of green roads concept to waste management of road construction project. Another purpose is to know the dominant factors affecting waste management of road construction projects. This study was done for road construction process in the Banda Aceh in Indonesia. This research uses qualitative and quantitative methods through the distribution of questionnaires. Respondents in this study were 90 units of road contractor companies has implemented projects from 2010 to 2016. The research result shows that the factor of application of green road concept that has the most influence on waste management is economic factor. The effect of this economic factor on road waste management is 18.7%. This indicates that if economic factor is enhanced, the waste management will increase on road construction project in Banda Aceh City. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
