Sustainable Approach to Nonurban Road Network Maintenance Management: Herzegovina-Neretva County, B&H Case Study
Source abstract
Abstract
This paper presents a systematic and sustainable approach to nonurban road network maintenance management based on the integration of multicriteria decision-making methods and methods of monitoring and control in the service of planning, implementation and monitoring and control as the basic management processes. This approach is based on the developed maintenance management model for nonurban road network, which consists of a weighting sub-model based on the AHP method, a priority road ranking sub-model based on TOPSIS method and a monitoring and control sub-model based on the combination of TOPSIS and Earned Value Analysis (EVA). The described model with all its supporting sub-models is tested on the case study of the regional road network of Herzegovina-Neretva County. The analysis of the obtained results shows the effectiveness of the presented approach to road maintenance management and the possibility of its practical application.
