Roads and Pavement Management

GeoPlan provides a full suite of applications for managing municipal operations. This page describes GeoPlan's Roads and Pavement Management module.

GeoPlan helps you inventory and manage elements and activities in your municipal roads system. Designed in close collaboration with municipal DPW staff, GeoPlan's Roads and Pavement Management module helps you automate your operations, leading to efficient manpower utilization, effective use of funding and better decision-making.

Fingertip Access to Road Data

Data maintained for each road segment include length, surface and base materials, ROW and shoulder width, functional class terminal X, Y coordinates, intersecting streets, posted speed limits, route coding for snow and refuse removal, and more.

Bid Package Support

Specific features provide support for generating contract bid specifications and bid packages, and for easily estimating budget requirements. Instead of spending hours calculating costs, GeoPlan will produce your bid details from street assessment data you have already entered. Maintenance items are selected from a drop-down menu that you can easily revise to meet your needs. Add standard boilerplate language and your bid package is ready to distribute.

The Materials data page is used to set-up an estimated unit cost for various maintenance items, which you can use to generate an overall estimated cost for your entire program. Compare this to your available budget to determine if certain items may need to be deferred or considered as alternates in your bidding process.

Signage and Appurtenance Inventory

Record a complete inventory and history of signage along a street. GeoPlan treats signage as one type of appurtenance occurring along a street segment. Multiple occurrences per road segment can be accommodated. You can enter details on the type of sign, location, material, support type, condition, dates, authorizing ordinances and notes. And, as in every GeoPlan module, the options that appear on the menus you use to expedite data entry are defined by you at set-up.

Roads Data Page
The Roads and Pavement Management module organizes a comprehensive inventory of road, pavement, signage, maintenance materials and activity data into five tabbed data pages.

Roads Materials Page
Enter details on contract items and unit cost into the materials page so GeoPlan can calculate total road improvement program costs relative to available budget.

Road Signage Page You can define the types of road signs and other appurtenances that you want to inventory in GeoPlan and they will appear in drop-down menus for convenient data entry.
