Title: A 'BACK TO BASICS' APPROACH TO HIGHWAY ASSET MANAGEMENT (AND CAN MODERN TECHNOLOGY HELP?)
Abstract: The paper will show that the historical, basic underlying principles of highway asset management remain valid today, despite many advances and changes in materials, equipment, procurement, public expectation and legislation in recent years. A back to basics approach is encouraged, from which the key building blocks of a sound highway management system can be readily developed. The authors will then explain how modem technology (ranging from relatively low-tech, low-cost systems to address individual building blocks, to complex, fully integrated highway management systems) can be effective in assisting engineers in such an approach.
