Software Helps City Planners Make Better Decisions for Road Maintenance and Preservation.

Austin, TX (PRWEB) - AgileAssets Inc., a leading global software company headquartered in Austin, today announced that the City of Austin selected AgileAssets® Pavement Analyst™ software to replace their legacy pavement management system. The City of Austin, Public Works, Street and Bridge Operations manages 7,582 lane miles of pavement and 450 bridges for almost 1 million city residents. The annual cost of maintaining this infrastructure is about $12M for capital improvement projects, $13M for street preventative maintenance treatments, and $6M for routine roadway repairs like fixing potholes.

The City of Austin’s primary goal in implementing the new Pavement Management System is to increase resource productivity and maximize pavement life at the lowest cost to taxpayers. With AgileAssets Pavement Analyst, planners are able to make more informed decisions on when, where and how to tackle strategic and operational challenges, achieving highest possible return on road network investments.
