In the light of levee roads built in recent years, the development stages and construction features of levee road in China are summarized: road type is depended on location; construction standard continues to improve; road function expands gradually, and designs are more flexible. Furthermore, the technical advances of levee road in China are expatiated in the following nine aspects: the form of combination between levee and road, design speed, function classification and grading system, cross section form, stability measures for embankment widening, filling materials and compaction standard, foundation treatment, pavement crack prevention, and management and maintenance mechanism. Finally, three issues which need further research are pointed out: key index system for design, seepage stability of road widening, and management method. %U http://ckyyb.crsri.cn/EN/10.11988/ckyyb.20170429
