Contents:
Introduction -- Transportation goals, objectives, and performance measures -- Data collection, processing, and database management -- Transportation facility performance modeling -- Transportation impacts modeling -- Transportation needs assessment -- Fundamentals of project evaluation -- Economic analysis of highway pavement preservation -- Economic analysis of highway bridge preservation -- Economic analysis of highway traffic control and safety hardware preservation -- Economic analysis of transit facility preservation -- Economic analysis of rail facility preservation -- Economic analysis of in-land waterway system preservation and usage -- Economic analysis of mobility improvements -- Economic analysis of highway safety improvements -- Transportation environmental impacts analysis -- Transportation decision models -- Transportation project selection -- Innovative financing and investment decisions -- Institutional issues.
Summary: "Transportation asset management delivers efficient and cost-effective investment decisions to support transportation infrastructure and system usage performance measured in economic, social, health, and environmental terms. It can be applied at national, state, and local levels. This is the first book to address asset management for multimodal transportation, taking account of system component interdependency, integration, and risk and uncertainty. It sets out rigorous quantitative and qualitative methods for addressing system goals, performance measures, and needs; data collection and management; performance modeling; project evaluation, selection, and trade-off analysis; innovative financing; and institutional issues. It applies as easily to static traffic and time-dependent or dynamic traffic which exists on a more local level. It is written for transportation planners, engineers, and academia, as well as a growing number of graduate students taking transportation asset management courses."--Provided by publisher.
