Pavement performance data, in terms of Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) deflection, was collected from 71 test sections available from the LTPP/LTPPM sites and used to develop structural deterioration models for flexible asphalt and sealed unbound…

This report documents the development of interim network level road deterioration (RD) models for the roughness, rutting and cracking of sealed granular pavements.

These RD models can be used at the network level for the strategic analysis of the…

This report looks at low-cost vehicle classifiers to provide some indication of pavement loading or gross vehicle mass (GVM). WIM equipment is relatively expensive to install and calibrate, and may not be easily installed anywhere in a road network.…

This discussion paper examines the consequences of 'peak oil' for road asset management and identified several key issues as the potential subject of future research to assist asset managers in managing the consequences of 'peak oil'. This paper is…

To assist member authorities in the management of road assets to provide better safety outcomes, this research program has been developed to assess the safety implications of road deterioration, the safety benefits of asset restoration, and the…
