Abstract:ODOT maintains approximately 43,000 lane miles of roadside ditches creating significant constraints on budgets and labor. Money spent on ditch cleaning/maintenance directly affects the long‐term cost of all roadway maintenance by slowing deterioration, reducing the scope for future repairs and protecting the investment made in roads against premature loss. The aim of the proposed research is to develop a more versatile and efficient process of cleaning/maintaining roadside ditches by increasing safety, optimizing labor hours, increasing flexibility of ditching process, and minimizing damage to road surfaces.
