A robust and increasingly resilient and
adaptive network of streets and highways,
including pavements, bridges, tunnels,
drainage systems, and other ancillary
components of highway infrastructure will
continue to be needed over the next half-
century under any plausible set of
circumstances, but . . .

. . .the ways in which we preserve,
maintain, and renew highway
infrastructure will change in response to
inevitable changes in the level and
patterns of usage of the system;
innovations in materials, methods, and
technologies; the availability of resources
to invest in emerging practices; and
customer expectations.

► PMR activities have in the past been dominated by tactical responses to
on the ground conditions that can’t wait
► Strategic thinking about activities has been enhanced by the movement
toward asset management and emphasis on performance
► Rapid advances in technologies (sensing, telecommunications,
information processing, artificial intelligence, robotics, etc.) have
presented opportunities and challenges to highway agencies
► Leaders to foster construction innovation, and practitioners to advocate
and implement emerging practices
