Road Features Inventory: Guidelines and Recommendations for Implementation

The objective of this project, advanced through the Maintenance & Construction Standing Committee of the Transportation Association of Canada, is to prepare a national guide to assist practitioners to develop, implement, and maintain road inventory systems. The project will utilize the expertise and experience from Canadian feature sources in formulating the contents of the Road Features Inventory Guide. Currently, there is a lack of a national document to describe the tools, techniques and processes to conduct operational reviews. As a result, there are considerable procedural inconsistencies among practitioners and highly variable results between jurisdictions. This project will address this deficiency by producing a national guide that may be used by public and private practitioners and by road authorities at all levels of government.
