  1. Research and Issues in Maintenance and Preservation of Infrastructure Presented to Pooled Fund April 19, 2012 Lisa Loyo Manager, Information Services Transportation Research Board

  2. What are we discussing? • • Infrastructure (pavement and bridges) preservation and maintenance • How do we decide when to preserve or maintain a road or a bridge or build something new? • Not the same as historic preservation • Similar questions and decisions as for equipment management – when do you replace versus repair? • Other definitions or comments ?

  3. What questions on this topic have you received?

  4. Perspective • Consider the entire state – projects often are distributed by region rather than based on ROI • Look at infrastructure as an entire network, and not individual projects • Comments?
