Abstract:

Contract maintenance has become a significant tool in recent decades that is used to some degree by most state agencies in the United States. Until the early 1970s, highway maintenance was mostly planned and executed by public highway agencies. Then, some highway agencies started contracting maintenance activities to private-sector resources. For the next 25 years many maintenance activities were outsourced in this manner. Some of the significant trends and projects that have occurred within the highway maintenance community are documented. It is hoped that documenting a composite of some of the various strategies tried by governmental agencies will help readers determine which methods may be applicable for their agencies.
