This Road Asset Management training course aims to enhance participants' understanding of the methods, tools, and techniques used for gathering and analyzing road data. This knowledge will help improve road construction and maintenance systems. With advances in technology, road agencies are now able to utilize effective decay forecasting methods and repurpose materials from one section of the road network to another.
The Energy training course will emphasize the creation of a sustainable road asset management system, which allows for reinvestment and revenue generation that can support the expansion of the road network, reduce costs, and increase income. This approach will shift roads from being purely capital investment projects to becoming capital revenue-generating projects.
