Vegetative assets and roadside safety features impact the longevity of structural assets. When vegetation fails, it can lead to pavement or bridge failure as the ground supporting the overall structure erodes.

NCHRP Web-Only Document 429: Investigation of Tools and Technology for Roadside Vegetation Asset Management, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, is supplemental to NCHRP Research Report 1155: Tools and Technology for Roadside Vegetation Asset Management: A Guide and details available and emerging tools and technology that can assist state departments of transportation with roadside vegetation asset management.
