Operations and Maintenance: Pavement Management System Mobile App

The focus of this app is to leverage a pavement management system to balance activities that extend the life and function of pavements with impacts to the human and natural environment.

The app identifies traits of sustainable highways and provides information and strategies to assist agencies and organizations to incorporate sustainability best practices into highway and other roadway projects. The App is intended to provide a process to assess transportation projects and to support improvements in the area of sustainability.

Transportation projects and systems serve many different and sometimes competing objectives. “Sustainability” is a concept that enables decision‐makers to make balanced choices based on social, economic, and environmental objectives. With ever diminishing economic and natural resources, using sustainable approaches in transportation will allow us to continue to enhance quality of life and serve the transportation needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs
