Abstract:This study focuses on engaging local bridge owners through interviews and interactions, aiming to assist them in enhancing their bridge management practices, while also developing resources to support them. Key deliverables include multiple resource guides: a Non-NBI Culvert Inspection Guide, a Weather Stressors Guide, and a Supplementary Guide for Local Municipalities to GDOT’s Bridge Structure Maintenance and Rehabilitation Repair Manual, each designed to improve inspection and maintenance processes, particularly for local bridge owners. The project also led to the development of the “Bridge Life Cycle” dashboard, a visualization tool that forecasts bridge performance, facilitates data sharing, and supports budgetary planning efforts. This dashboard represents the first attempt to apply data-informed methods to bridge lifecycle management for local bridge owners. The resources and strategies developed provide essential tools to improve bridge management, enhance coordination between GDOT and local bridge owners, and support more informed and efficient decision-making. Additionally, the project lays the foundation for enabling bridge owners to develop a comprehensive bridge service life cycle plan that will support locally owned bridge and culvert management in future transportation infrastructure planning.
