Located just southwest of Minneapolis-St. Paul, Carver County MN is a mostly rural part of Minnesota with a population of about 103,000. The Carver County Pavement Management initiative was supported by WithersRavenel. They assisted the county with the development of two pavement lifecycle models.
For the first model, WithersRavenel combined the County’s pavement condition survey data with their pavement management treatment decision tree. This helps trigger the correct pavement treatments for County roads.
The results of the initial modeling project were then used to create a second model. This second model notifies the Carver County when striping and painting should be applied to street segments.
