Pavement Asset Management,
     RoadSoft-GIS, and the PASER System
         In 2002, Public Act 499 was signed into law defining
         asset management as “an ongoing process of
         maintaining, upgrading, and operating physical assets
         cost-effectively, based on a continuous physical
         inventory and condition assessment”
         RoadSoft software was introduced in 1993, and since
         that time, yearly funding from MDOT has enabled
         LTAP at Michigan Tech to continue to refine
         development and provide technical support.
         The Pavement Surface Evaluation and Rating (PASER)
         methodology is used to collect road surface condition
         data. PASER is a visual assessment system that rates
         the road surface on a scale of 1-10. Where 10 is new
         construction and 1 is totally failed.

Maintaining An Asset
               The PASER rating, and subsequent classification to ‘Good’, ‘Fair’, & ‘Poor’,
               corresponds to an associated Remaining Service Life (RSL).
               It is much more cost effective to perform preventative maintenance while
               the condition is still good.

Results

         Analysis was performed at several funding levels
         Funding levels were evaluated for programs with
         consistent budgets, as well as ‘front loaded’
         The following graphs summarize the findings

Conclusions
        Current Funding Level - $3,200,000 is not sufficient to
        maintain the average PASER condition over ten years.
        Funding the road program at $4,000,000 per year improves
        the average condition of the system, however more streets
        would be in poor condition
        An investment of $5,000,000 per year
                Provides ample funding to maintain roads currently in
                good/fair condition (protect previous investments)
                Provides ample funding for road program to incorporate a
                reconstruction component
                Roads in ‘Poor’ category are slightly reduced over 10 year
                period
                Provides improved overall average PASER rating of system
                (From 6.5 to 7.5) after 10 years

    Pavement Asset Management, RoadSoft-GIS, and the PASER System In 2002, Public Act 499 was signed into law defining asset management as “an ongoing process of maintaining, upgrading, and operating physical assets cost-effectively, based on a continuous physical inventory and condition assessment” RoadSoft software was introduced in 1993, and since that time, yearly funding from MDOT has enabled LTAP at Michigan Tech to continue to refine development and provide technical support. The Pavement Surface Evaluation and Rating (PASER) methodology is used to collect road surface condition data. PASER is a visual assessment system that rates the road surface on a scale of 1-10. Where 10 is new construction and 1 is totally failed. Page 2 of 19 Road Asset Management and Funding Analysis Presentation March 2012

    Maintaining An Asset The PASER rating, and subsequent classification to ‘Good’, ‘Fair’, & ‘Poor’, corresponds to an associated Remaining Service Life (RSL). It is much more cost effective to perform preventative maintenance while the condition is still good.
