This study proposes a model for evaluating life-cycle cost (LCC) for pavements considering both driver's route choice behavior and repair. It is assumed that drivers change their route choices because of both the change in driving cost brought about by the deterioration of surface conditions on pavements and the change in traffic capacities due to repair work on pavements. The LCC minimization problem is formulated as the implicit program, in which LCC is minimized subject to the probit-based stochastic user equilibrium (PSUE), which expresses drivers’ route choices. The solution algorithm for the LCC minimization problem developed by applying the sensitivity analysis technique for the PSUE is also presented. Last, the simple numerical results obtained by using the test network are shown.
