Vegetation and roadside safety features need to be strong in order to prevent erosion that can lead to pavement or bridge failure as the ground supporting the overall structure erodes.
NCHRP Research Report 1155: Tools and Technology for Roadside Vegetation Asset Management: A Guide, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, describes how state departments of transportation (DOTs) can promote and implement roadside vegetation asset management (RVAM). The guide offers suggestions, including support for promoting and updating RVAM plans and information on tools and technology that can serve state DOTs during RVAM tasks.
