Implementing Pavement Management Systems for Local Agencies

During this project, the research team is conducting a literature review to identify innovative approaches being taken to pavement management, with an emphasis on local agency implementations. The team is contacting several pavement management software vendors to obtain detailed information about their software to support the development of the guidelines. An online survey is being developed and distributed to municipal and county engineers around the state; the responses to these surveys are being used to identify which agencies will be highlighted as case study examples. APTech will also be conducting interviews with selected local agencies and Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) staff to gain information for the development of the guidelines. Finally a synthesis of pavement management practice will be developed. The synthesis will provide an overview of the various processes selected agencies underwent in implementing their respective systems.
