“Times are changing. It’s no longer
constructing roads, it’s about
preserving and maintaining the roads.
It’s about doing pavement treatments at
the right time so we effectively extend
the service life and improve the quality
of service for the traveling public.”

Preventive Maintenance
Typical County’s Highways as Assets
Say Typical County - 400 lane miles of pavement
Deteriorate over time
Oxidize, crack, pothole
Cost to rehabilitate
$400 million (@ $1M/lane mile)
Cost to construct
$600 million (@ $1.5M/lane mile)

1980’s Agreements with Industry
Late 1980’s Armor Coat to 1 ½ inch Overlays
Early 1990’s Dedicated Fund - Preventive

Late 1990’s - Alternative Treatments
2000’s - Transportation Bonds - Funding

2012 - Accelerated Pavement Preservation Program
Paving Cycle
Goal
Paving Cycle = Average Treatment Life
Compute number of years to treat all roads
Divide total miles by miles treated
Example:
6000 total miles
600 miles surface treated (omit crack
sealing)
6000 miles / 600 miles = 10 years
Traditional “Worst First” Method
State Agency
Network has 4,356 lane-miles Annual Budget $37 million

Rehabilitation 82 $15,641,952

Benefits of Pavement Preservation
Lower annualized cost
Better overall network condition
Reduced vehicle damage and
construction delay
Traveling public better served
Remaining Service Life
Assume
Every mile of agency’s highway network is
rated by number of years remaining until
the end of its life – terminal condition
Not necessarily a failed road
But, a pavement condition set by management

• Very economical
• Preventive maintenance treatment that adds 5 to 8 years life to a Pavement
• Seals and renews old pavement Surface
• Prevents water and air intrusion into pavement
• Improves skid resistance
FIBERMAT®
ADVANTAGES
To bridge alligator cracking and
delay reflective cracking
To improve skid resistance
To protect and waterproof sub-
base
To improve tensile strength
To add a flexible interlayer to
absorb movements

Requires only short single lane traffic closure
Service life up to 10 years
Economical
COLD IN PLACE RECYCLING

Nominated for the 2007 Summit Award for Leadership in Green Procurement
10 year evaluation, endorsed by the Connecticut DOT as cost effective
Ontario Ministry of Transportation - more environmentally friendly then
traditional paving methods

Learning Assessment Questions The FHWA endorses the Worst First pavement maintenance strategy.
An agency should have a Management Plan for each class of assets that they are
responsible for.
The NYSDOT Pavement Scoring System is a 1 to 10 point scoring system.
Pavement Preservation Treatments
a. Seal cracks to keep water out
b. Rejuvenate a weathered surface
c. Prolong the life of a pavement
d. All of the above
The window of opportunity for applying Pavement Preservation treatments is wide.
• Over the past several years, the Pavement Condition Ratings for NYSDOT roads has
been related to the funding level for Pavement Preservation.
• The Remaining Service Life concept is easy to understand, but difficult to
operationalize.
• Surface Treatments (Chip Seals) cannot improve pavement friction characteristics.
• The surface texture of Paver Placed Surface Treatment is indistinguishable from
dens graded hot mix asphalt.
• Cold in Place Recycling of asphalt concrete pavements is environmentally friendly.
