Need to ensure that all authorities perform visual condition assessments of their road pavements (1-2 years) and bridges (3 to 5 years). On road with higher traffic levels we also need to perform additional automated condition surveys: –Roughness – how bumpy is the road – speed, wear, etc –Rut Depth – how much water pond on surface – safety –Macro Texture – assist vehicle tire to drain water – safety, noise –Surface Deflection– to establish the structural strength and remaining life of a pavement Traffic Data – Required for economic analysis and prioritization.
