Evaluation of I-80 Long-Life Corridor Costs

This technical memorandum summarizes the analysis performed in evaluating Long-Life Pavement Rehabilitation Strategies (LLPRS) cost. This study is part of the effort to develop an Integrated Pavement Strategy Decision Support System to allow engineers to analyze efficient allocation of financial resources when planning pavement projects. This study analyzed cost performances of a long-life pavement project on Interstate 80 between Nevada County (Truckee) from east of the Fireboard undercrossing to the west end of the Truckee River Bridge. The analysis performed determined that Contract Change Orders and the delays caused by them are the source of the cost overrun and the difference between the estimated and actual costs.
