Highway maintenance, especially pavement resurfacing work that requires lane closures, is one of the main responsibilities of the Maryland State Highway Administration. Given the very substantial cost of doing that maintenance and the very substantial traffic disruption and safety hazards associated with highway maintenance work, it is desirable to plan and manage the work in ways that minimize the combined cost of maintenance, traffic disruptions and accidents. The overall costs of road maintenance and traffic disruption may be very significantly reduced through properly integrated decisions about the conduct and schedule of maintenance activities and the development of appropriate traffic management plans.
