Abstract:

A routine highway maintenance needs assessment program allows a transportation agency to establish a maintenance work program consistent with the objectives of a pavement maintenance management system. With the assessment of the highway's condition, work load quantities and the associated costs can be estimated. Traditionally, agencies have used past historical data to estimate a highway systems maintenance needs. However, in an increasing competitive monetary environment, the idea of justifying the maintenance needs is becoming important.
