Abstract:

Striping operations generate a significant workload for MoDOT maintenance operations. The requirement for each striping crew ; to replenish its stock of paint and other consumable items from a bulk storage facility, along with the necessity to make several ; passes on most of the routes to stripe all the lines on that road, introduce the potential for inefficiencies in the form of “deadhead ; miles” that striping crew vehicles must travel while not actively applying pavement markings. These inefficiencies generate ; unnecessary travel, wasted time, and vehicle wear. ; This report updates a 2015 report that developed a decision support tool for scheduling and routing road striping operations. The ; updates presented in this report improve the optimization model, and generate more user-friendly outputs.
