Abstract:

The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) maintains 43,000 lane miles of roadway in order to allow the public to

safely and efficiently travel throughout Ohio. Pavement conditions play a major role in the efficiency and safety of the

traveling public, as well as public opinion towards ODOT. The public’s increasing demand to have roadways clear of

potholes and cracks motivates ODOT to explore various methods of extending the lifespan of the roadways without an

increase in budget. ODOT currently spends approximately $523 million dollars on pavement projects and an additional $25

million on maintaining the roadways (not including snow and ice operations) in the fiscal year 2015 (ODOT, 2015). One

method that may increase the service life of pavement is to reduce the amount of standing water on the roadways by

cleaning pipes and underdrains.

The results of this project will provide ODOT with a cleaning method necessary for maintaining pipes and underdrains that

may be more efficient than he current practices of ODOT. In addition, the project provides recommendations for

equipment that is specialized in cleaning smaller pipes and drains that will utilize an existing ODOT vehicle located at the

Portage County Garage in District 4.
