What are we at?

• Road Licensing• Software development• Pavement Management

• Pavement Management Working Group• Mechanical Survey• Collation of Data• What to do with it



Pavement Management Working Group



Pavement Management Working Group:• Carlow (chair), Cork City, Dún Laoghaire –Rathdown,

Galway, DTTAS, Limerick City and County, Wexford, LGMA, RMO

• Current Work:• Works App• Footways• Drainage• Pavement Management Strategy / Management Pavement Plans

• Process: – scope – specify – pilot – review – implement




Footways



Pavement Management Working Group - Footways (scoping)

Principals! Don’t develop something

which doesn’t give value Don’t develop something

which won’t be used With all the data available,

develop tools to interpret and assist with decision-making

Don’t make work for engineer/technician

• WHY ?



• Hierarchy of footways

References IPB Managing Roads and Footpath Risks , Sections 4 & 5.2 IPAG

• Condition

• Risk

• Frequency




• Survey methodology• Full vs. Hazard• Video vs. Photos vs.

Descriptive• Technical supports





Works App



Pavement Management Working Group – Works AppCurrent Functionality:•Down load planned works to tablet.•Update start and end and mark as complete•Creation of new works (inc. extents)•Rate road at planned works site•Upload new works to MapRoad

Surveys and Data Collation



• RW 21 Nov 2014

• Visual – PSCI

• Mechanical – IRI, rut depth, texture, cracking, scrim

Surveys:• PSCI Network survey

2015• Regional – 100%• Local Primary -100%

• PSCI Work Survey• Before and after 100%

of each project

• Mechanical• Network 2015 - 10% min sample of Local Primary network only• Works 10% of Local Primary, 10% of Local secondary and 5% of

Local Tertiary jobs completed.• Some LA have proceeded • Available through LA Quotes• Specification and tender documents to be issued to each LA

once framework is in place• Each LA can tender for survey works using RFT via LA Quotes at

any stage during the next 3 years.• Ability to contract out PSCI survey to service provider.• RMO to procure national regional road survey next year.



Data Collation



“If you do not ask the right question, you discover nothing”

W. Edwards Deming

“Without data you are just a another person with an opinion”

W. Edwards Deming

“If we have data, let’s look at data. If all we have are opinions, let’s go with mine.”

– Jim Barksdale

Some Quotations



Data on system:

• PSCI data 2015 and previous years.

• Data uploads from 2014

• Roadworks Programme 2015

• €180M of planned works loaded across 3600 projects and 3600km.

• Work ongoing to programme these.

• 17 Local Authorities with DTTAS submissions made



Learning:

• Additional guidance on PSCI vs categories of intervention.

• Clarifications on stages of process: Planned- Approved – Complete.

• What data is recorded and use



“Data by its self is useless. Data is only useful if you apply it”

Todd Park



Pavement Surface Condition IndexRelatable to treatments



Work to date: (surveying)RW 21 2014

Over 56000km surveyed over 60% of network:

• R 47%, • LP 73%, • LS 63%, • LT 50%

IPAG: Pavement Management Guidelines

• Asset Register (Roadways, Footways, Structures, Traffic Management, Markings etc)

• Network Referencing• Inventory and Data Management• Routine Maintenance ( categories of

intervention)• Condition Surveying and Rating• Pavement Asset Management Strategies• Reinstatements• New Roads and Taking in Charge

Options?



Pavement Asset Management Strategies:•Prioritisation

• Condition ( PSCI, Mech Survey)• Strategic Importance• Defects• Collision history• Repairs• Claims• Traffic (volume, hg, agricultural,

forestry)• Statutory undertakers works

•Cost by category of road or location•Role of Members



Pavement Asset Management Strategies:

•Are we all starting from the same place?

•Categories of road – standardisation?•Cost of maintenance for different locations•Efficiency




•Performance Measures - KPIs?

•Roads Requiring Maintenance?•Roads surfaced?•Backlog (headline vs. maintenance)•When to intervene?•Consistency between MD’s?




• Strategy at a National Level

• Plan at a local level

• Pilot sites in 2015/2016

• Increased flexibility

• Increased accountability
