Rehabilitation of facility related elements, such as the guideway running surface of an Airport People Mover (APM) System should be undertaken in a proactive fashion. This would include development of several different repair alternatives for the owner's consideration, rather than a forced running surface replacement with associated emergency shutdown of the APM System. This paper will present how an extensive material testing/analysis allowed the team to evaluate the condition of existing concrete and develop a larger range of alternatives for the rehabilitation. The alternatives ranged from a durable rehabilitation with minimal impact to the service to a full replacement of the running surface. The paper examined features of an alternative evaluation matrix, developed as a decision-making tool for the Owner.
