"....This
type of information has never been available to
VTrans
but has always had great potential whether it be in development of
permit fees or, specifically for our Section, in the design of new
pavements. With the movement toward the Mechanistic-Empirical
design approach there is strong potential for
SPDE results to play a part in developing more efficient
and reliable pavement structures. Based on the recently received
deliverable and the pleasant experience of working with ESRA
professionals on this project, all indications are this undertaking
could
pay dividends for
VTrans."
