Monograph

This issue contains sixteen papers on maintenance services, weather, and winter maintenance. Specific topics addressed in this issue include the following: ice melting capacity tests; superhydrophobic coatings on asphalt concrete surfaces; environmental sensor station location optimization; variable speed limit freeway operations under foggy weather conditions; avalanche support in road weather information systems; high-accuracy mapping of lane markings; pavement marking retroreflectivity prediction under the effect of winter weather events; and winter road surface condition monitoring. Other topics addressed include: highway maintenance level of service; social media for traffic management; driver speed choice in fog; effects of precipitation on vehicle speed; chemical melting of ice; snow-supporting structures for avalanche; energy-regenerative shock absorbers; and fire risk assessment for highway bridges.
