Abstract:The 2011 Missouri river flooding caused damage to many geoinfrastructure
systems including levees, bridge abutments/foundations,
paved and unpaved roadways, culverts, and embankment slopes in
western Iowa. The total reported direct cost to repair flood-damaged
transportation infrastructure on primary and secondary roadways in
western Iowa was about $63.5 million. The extent of damage was in
some cases directly observable, i.e., where segments of the roadway
were washed away, but in many cases was undetermined, i.e., where the
damage was below the pavement surface or around bridges.
