- Toward More Sustainable Infrastructure: Project Evaluation for Planners and Engineers

On the cover: The U.S. has four million miles of roads and streets that have to be maintained at an adequate service level. In “Pavement Pre-and Post-Treatment Performance Models Using LTPP Data,” Pan Lu and Denver Tolliver find that differences in pavement deterioration in severe weather regions are greater than in less severe weather regions, and that pavement deterioration increases with freeze-thaw cycles.
