| Popis: | This paper describes a framework for implementing livability into transportation asset management practices. The framework focuses on improving the quality of bikeway networks as an important factor to enhance livability. The Bikeway Quality Framework is explained step by step and provides ideas for assessment, prioritization, scenarios, and reporting. In the assessment phase, existing and planned assets according to applicable local plans are coordinated with pavement resurfacing projects for maximum cost efficiency. During the prioritization phase, assets in need of maintenance are ranked based on their importance, location, cost of the maintenance, and remaining service life. Scenarios analyses include both constrained and unconstrained budgets. Results of the analysis are reported using several performance measures: agency expenditures, level of non-motorized investment, bikeway pavement condition, bikeway pavement marking condition, and jobs created. The framework is applied in an example with 70 block-long sections in San Francisco, California. |
