• Abstract:
  The Washington state transportation system is under pressure, physically and financially. Railroad abandonment, waterway drawdown and road deterioration all contribute to a sense of urgency in detailing the needs of that system. The overall purpose of this study is to provide a detailed assessment of needs, specifically for the road system in eastern Washington. Although road needs includes redesign, truck lanes, configuration, etc., Wls study looks solely and directly at the road deterioration from the normal wear and tear associated with movement of grains.
