With the rapid development of China’s highway construction, the huge demand for funds and the lack of financial strength of the contradiction is increasingly obvious, can effectively control the maintenance costs, highway operators to obtain sustainable development advantages of the key factors. This paper measures the highway maintenance and management costs including carbon emission costs based on the perspective of life cycle cost analysis. Based on the perspective of life cycle cost analysis, prediction models are developed for each component cost of highway maintenance and management costs. The carbon emission costs generated during the operation duration of highways are also included in the life-cycle costs, and the calculation model is proposed for the strategy of “30∙60 carbon target” in China. In the example analysis, the carbon emission cost of new energy vehicles is only 3/4 of that of fuel vehicles in the driving phase; more than 90% of the carbon emission is generated by the driving vehicles.
