AASHTO SUBCOMMITTEE ON CONSTRUCTION AUGUST 2010 SHRP 2 Renewal Program Overview

What Questions will be addressed? What is Highway Renewal? Why is it important? What is the SHRP 2 Renewal Program? How can I use the SHRP 2 Products?

What are we facing Heavy Traffic Volumes Concern to maximize the movement of traffic Restrictions on the time and length of traffic lane closures Need to maximize service life of facilities Need to minimize impacts to the community

What is Highway Renewal? The reconstruction or substantial rehabilitation of deteriorating highway infrastructure to new standards of service, while the infrastructure continues to serve the traveling public. Rapid Renewal implies accelerated construction but also includes project delivery, design, and operational & maintenance features that minimize the total project length and produces long lasting facilities
