Guidelines for determining expected road routine and periodic maintenance costs and predicting pavement condition over time are presented. This input is necessary for the economic evaluation of road construction and rehabilitation projects. The developed guidelines, which are presented in the context of a recent project application in Southeast Asia (Rural Infrastructure Fund Project), have direct application in the economic analysis of internationally funded investment projects in developing countries. Proposed techniques and procedures have been adopted from the ones accepted worldwide by international organizations and also according to the authors' experience in the field. One of the objectives was to obtain simple procedures, sensitive to the fast-track nature of road feasibility studies. These guidelines were developed and successfully applied in a project of infrastructure evaluation in the Philippines, sponsored by the United States Agency for International Development.
