A seamless transition structure between the expansion joint and the asphalt pavement was designed. The asphalt pavement layer and the expansion joint edge beam can be reinforced by connectors to improve the tightness and integrity of the connection between the two, so that the two can be seamlessly transitioned, thereby avoiding the occurrence of gaps between them.

A rubber pad 11 is pasted on the inner wall of the groove 1. The rubber pad 11 is a rubber pad. The inner cavity of the rectangular groove 2 is filled with a structural adhesive layer 12, which is an asphalt paving layer. An expansion joint edge beam 13 is set on the outer side of the rectangular metal block 4. A sealing rubber strip 14 is set on the surface of the expansion joint edge beam 13.
