摘要评价公路资产状况是建立有效的公路管理体制的前提。它需要最高管理层的参与、设备、训练有素的人力资源和专门的资金。纽芬兰和拉布拉多有13,500车道公里的道路，其中近7,700公里属于当地司法管辖区。当地机构通常会参考加拿大运输协会的路面管理指南来管理公路网。但是，市政道路需要更具体的指导方针，考虑到缺乏人力资源、设备、资金不足、环境因素和公众期望等问题。为了更好地维护这些道路，评估道路状况是第一步。然而，一个适当的评估系统需要大量的资金、训练有素的劳动力和必要的设备。因此，本文引入了利用道路使用者反馈的思想。来自全省108个直辖市的市民参与了一项反馈调查，他们被问及有关道路资产状况的问题。这项调查产生了大量数据。首先，对道路使用者的反馈数据进行探索性分析。在此基础上，建立了一个简单的基于破损的路面使用性能模型。这个模型可以被当地机构作为一种简单的决策工具来采用。为了使该模型具有实用性，本文还介绍了一个名为MUNPave的智能手机应用程序。
ABSTRACT Assessing roadway assets condition is the prerequisite of an efficient road management system. It requires participation from the top management, equipment, trained human resources, and dedicated funding. Newfoundland and Labrador have 13,500 lane kilometers of roads, of which almost 7,700 kilometers belong to the local jurisdictions. Local agencies typically consult the Transportation Association of Canada's pavement management guidelines for managing the road networks. But, municipality roads require more specified guidelines considering issues like lack of human resources, equipment, inadequate funding, environmental factors, and public expectations. To better maintain these roads, evaluation of road conditions is the first step. However, a proper evaluation system needs considerable funding, a trained workforce, and necessary equipment. Hence, the idea of using road users’ feedback is introduced in this paper. Citizens from 108 municipalities of the province participated in a feedback survey where they were asked questions about roadway assets condition. The survey resulted in a significant amount of data. First, an exploratory analysis of the road users’ feedback data was conducted. Then, a simple distress-based pavement performance model was developed. This model can be adopted by the local agencies as a simple decision-making tool. To make the model practical, a smartphone application called MUNPave is also introduced in this paper.
