System Management Pyramid

SHOPPPavement Rehabilitation

State Highway System consists of approximately 51,000 lane miles

13,845 lane miles need rehabilitation as of the 2006/07 fiscal year

Effect of Proposition 1B funding at $400 million will cause a slight reduction in the increase of rehabilitation needs

Pavement Asset Management Strategies

By 2017/2018, maintain 80 percent of pavement in fair to good condition at a cost of $1.45 billion per year

Balance investment between highly distressed pavement and more cost effective pavement treatments

Conduct life cycle costs on all projects to ensure the most effective project at the lowest long-term cost
