Update and Improve Pavement Management Information System (PMIS) Treatment Decisions and Effectiveness

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) modern Pavement Management Information System (PMIS), Pavement Analyst has been successfully implemented since 2017. Districts rely on Pavement Analyst for condition evaluation, project selection and decision-making such as in the 4-Year Pavement Management Plan (4Y PMP). To better reflect the geographical variation in engineering practice, operation, climate conditions, material resources, and project cost among different regions or Districts, the research team will: (1) update the existing statewide decision trees and develop decision trees for various regions or Districts in a hierarchical manner, (2) update different levels of treatment definitions and descriptions, (3) develop a standard procedure for treatment unit cost update and update the treatment unit costs, and (4) update the treatment quality effectiveness. The goal of this project is to develop the necessary tools to make the project selection decision-making more accurate, efficient, and realistic in accounting for statewide and local conditions.
