PROPICE (optimised preservation and rehabilitation of infrastructure assets subject to constraints induced by traffic, the environment and frontageresidents) is a French research programme set up in 2006 and funded by the ANR (National Research Agency). The purpose of the project is to developstrategies for management of existing infrastructure assets (road in particular) and technological and methodological tools to contribute to material reduction of the nuisance induced by work sites on these infrastructures, as regarded from three essential viewpoints: nuisance induced for public travel and transport; nuisance to residents adjacent to work sites, and more general environmental impact resulting from these work sites. This research project is coordinated by the Egis Group, and involves leading national players (companies, an operator, a construction authority, research laboratories and a university).
