Abstract

The system's approach and cost effectiveness analyses techniques are reviewed in regard to highway maintenance operations. The forms to measure analyses of cost effectiveness and the problems that will be encountered in carrying them through are briefly explored. Techniques for making cost effectiveness studies are classified in three general categories. The question is examined of giving decisions regarding highway maintenance's greater sensitivity to the wishes of the public. Cost effectiveness is looked upon as an advanced and valuable aid to decision making and as a fruitful area for research and development.
