SPR-4804: Roadside Right-of-Way Maintenance Strategies

Vegetation management BMPs will be updated through improved work planning, updated design standards, and identification of new tools and technology to identify potential cost savings. These updates will increase staff safety; reduce vegetation management hours; improve processes and procedures, asset preservation, design standards, and specifications; and provide a better understanding of the public’s desires for roadside aesthetics. This research will result in the creation of an interim report, a final report, and multiple implementation activities.
