A PROCESS FOR DETERMINING FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ROAD MAINTENANCE AND OPTIMAL MAINTENANCE MEASURES

Under the sponsorship of the Federal Ministry of Transport, Federal Republic of Germany, a process has been developed to improve forecasts of the budgetary requirements for long-term maintenance of the national road network and to assist in making economically optimized road maintenance decisions. This process (designated the strategy model process (designated the strategy model process) relies on a number of models that, in general, include the service life of road sections alternative maintenance measures as indpenedent stochastic variables. Examples are provided to illustrate how the strategy model process can be and has been used as a practical instrument for decision makers.
