A Multi‐asset Transportation Infrastructure Asset Management Framework and Modeling for Local Governments
The local governments (LGs) in the Unitized States are managing 3/4 of total 4 million miles of roadway and more than 1/2 of nearly 600,000 bridges, which are critical transportation infrastructure assets to support the mobility, economy, and homeland security in local communities and the nation as a whole. To maintain the aging transportation infrastructure in the state of good repair under the shrinking budget, the state Departments of Transportation (DOTs) have adopted asset management systems (AMSs) to conduct cost‐effective maintenance, rehabilitation, and reconstruction (MR&R).
