Description / Abstract:
Preface
The AASHTO Transportation Asset Management
Guide—A Focus on Implementation, aims to
encourage transportation agencies to address strategic questions as
they confront the task of managing the surface transportation
system. Drawn from both national and international knowledge and
experience, it provides guidance to State Department of
Transportation (DOT) decision makers, as well as county and
municipal transportation agencies, to assist them in realizing the
most from financial resources now and in the future, preserving
highway assets, and providing the service expected by customers.
Divided into two parts, Part One of the implementation guide
focuses on leadership and goal and objective setting, while Part
Two is more technically orientated.
This implementation guide is based on research conducted under
National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Project
08-69, Supplement to the AASHTO Transportation Asset Management
Guide: Volume 2— A Focus on Implementation. AECOM served as
prime contractor for the research with the assistance of
subcontractors Paul D. Thompson and Spy Pond Partners.
