Application of diagnostics of pavement conditions for identification of dangerous places for road users
Journal Title: Roads and Bridges - Drogi i Mosty - Year 2010, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
The main goal of the described project was formulation and documentation of the identification method of the potential road traffic risk caused by the unsatisfying exploitation condition of pavement. The paper presents the method's algorithm as well as the ways of visualization and documentation of the analysis results. The method was applied in pilot project on two national road sections (DK-8 and S-7) in Warsaw surroundings.
