Maintenance and Surface Preparation Activities Prior to Pavement Preservation Treatments
Pavement preservation is broadly acknowledged to provide network-wide benefits such as
extending pavement life, enhancing system performance, reducing operation and maintenance
costs, and improving safety. However, the performance of each pavement preservation project
hinges on many factors.
The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's
NCHRP Synthesis 565:
Maintenance and Surface Preparation Activities Prior to Pavement Preservation Treatments
documents the types of maintenance and surface preparation activities
performed by departments of transportation before pavement preservation treatments are applied.
