• Abstract:
  This project provides data compilation, analysis methodology and visualization methodology for the current network ; data assets of the Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT). This study finds that ALDOT is faced with a ; considerable number of challenges in meeting the growing demand for transportation. This project also provides a ; technology-enabled tool for asset management, to help define issues, and to help managers make data-driven, ; model-based decisions about work issues and allocation of resources. The study finds: ; • The 2004 to 2008 CPMS does not meet the needs of the transportation system. The program will have outstanding ; transportation needs for improvements in capacity, safety, and system preservation (bridges and pavement). ; • The 2018 CPMS transportation program will demonstrate even higher levels of deficiencies and need for additional ; funding. ; • Program funds are equitably distributed to programs statewide, including counties that have been identified as ; “lagging” by the Center for Business and Economic Research at the University of Alabama. ; • The CPMS program should be reviewed periodically to ensure it continues to meet performance measures for ; capacity, safety, and system preservation.
