Abstract:

The Norwegian Public Roads Administration developed a complete pavement management system (PMS) during the period 1986 through 1990. The system incorporates existing subsystems, such as condition surveys and tender preparation, and is supplemented with a programmed project and network-level maintenance and rehabilitation planning system. Today the complete system consists of pavement condition surveys, road inventory surveys, road data bank, project planning and network optimization including performance trend (past history and future predictions) and life cycle cost analysis, and tender preparation including as-built cost statistics, which all are interconnected by data processing links. Annual government grants for the maintenance and rehabilitation of national roads amount to $450,000,000. Each year 3,000 km of hard surfacings (out of total network of 53,000 km) are renewed at a cost of $150,000,000. Future developments of the pavement management system include the implementation of expert systems for selecting maintenance activities, a new interactive data base system, and an updating of the user interface.
