Survey and Economic Analysis of Pavement Impacts from Studded Tire Use

The objective of the proposed study is to (1) Collect comprehensive studded tire tax revenue and compare to the pavement costs associated solely by studded tire use and (2) Survey the current tire options in Alaska and their published testing results to draw conclusions for ratios of studded/non-studded tire use currently on the road system.
