Pavement Management
• Pavements are one of the largest capital investments of
Eagle County.
• Limited funding requires prioritization of maintenance
needs
• Pavement Management provides an analytical approach
• Eagle County initiated a Pavement Management Program
in 2003

Methodology
• 2011 Surveyed all Asphalt Roads
– Evaluated for seven distress types:
• Alligator cracking, cracking, raveling, patching, rutting,
shoving and settlement
• The most prevelent distress is rated for severity
• Pavement Condition Index (PCI)
– The PCI is calculated by a two-step process
• Deduct curves for each distress are programmed in the
software
• Deductions are totaled and subtracted from 100

Methodology
Condition
Description
Pavement Condition
Rating
Description
Excellent
91-100
Pavement structure is stable, with distresses in low density and severity.
Roadways in this category are usually fairly new or recently repaired.
Good
81-90
Pavement structure is stable, but may have surface erosion or minor
cracking, which is generally hairline and hard to detect, minor patching, and
possibly some minor deformation. Riding qualities are very good.
Fair
66-80
Pavement structure is generally stable with minor areas of structural
weakness evident. Cracking is easier to detect. The pavement might be
patched, but not excessively. Although riding qualities are good,
deformation is more pronounced and easily noticed.
Poor
51-65
Roadway has areas of instability, marked evidence of structural deficiency,
large crack patterns, heavy and numerous patches, and very noticeable
deformation. Riding qualities range from acceptable to poor. Spot repair of
the pavement base may be required.
Critical
0-50
Cost of saving the pavement structural section would equal or exceed
complete reconstruction of roadway

Recommendations
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
$22 million in asphalt maintenance needs
Recent Budgets not sufficient to complete projects
Average PCI is declining
Increase R&B spending to proposed levels
Use Fund Balance for 4 years
Continue to refine and improve Program
Provide priority guidance to R&B in future
