Abstract:Faced with continuously increasing maintenance due to aging infrastructure, the Texas Department of
Transportation (TxDOT) is evaluating the potential impact of reduced funding on highway safety. The main
objective of this report is to develop a methodological procedure to identify threshold levels of pavement skid
resistance for highways in the context of traffic crashes, assisting TxDOT Administration and engineers in
making proper maintenance decisions. As a result, the efficiency and safety of the highway system could be
preserved. The scope of this study covers all types of state-maintained highways in Texas.
