MISSION STATEMENT OF NHA FOR ROAD MAINTENANCE / PRESERVATION To maintain and operate the National Highways and Strategic Roads to minimize the road transportation costs, provide driving comfort and safety to the road users at all times, and preserve the asset investment in roads, bridges and appurtenances cost effectively. NHA EXISTING ROAD MAINTENANCE NHA has embarked upon a program of Resource and Road Asset Management in its endeavors to improve the serviceability and value for money that it requires from its highway network. This is the modern approach to road management much favored in the countries where budgets for the care and repair of roads are always in deficit. Every road network has a Book Asset Value at the start of the year. This is made up of: The value of the existing pavements as constructed, and then down valued according to (i) their present condition and (ii) the cost of putting them in the minimum acceptable condition. The stock value of the structures based upon their replacement value.
NHA EXISTING ROAD MAINTENANCE Based upon available resources and the priorities of serviceability, an annual program of care, conservation and upgrading of the road network then takes place. This program of works is the investment being made in the road network. An analysis at the end of the following year of the road conditions and hence the prevailing asset valuesreflects the downward valuation of roads that have deteriorated further (due to no intervention) and the upward valuation of those sections receiving investments in the form of conservation or improvement programs and gives an overall picture of increase or decrease in remaining service life of the road network.

Advantages of Road Management System Money spend on need basis. Reduces overall vehicle operating cost, thus by improving road network condition and reducing average road roughness. Reduction in average travel time. Reduction in rehabilitation cost and increase in investment particularly routine & preventive maintenance. Effective and efficient monitoring of maintenance works and its requirement.
Disadvantages of Road Management System Centralized System in which all stakeholders needs to be brought into the loop which is a difficult task. The funding available is always less than requirement, therefore, maintenance backlog is created.
Issues Thinning of Resource Envelope and Time/Cost over-runs. Sustainable Financing of NHA s Program No axle load controls and weak regulatory framework. Neglected Essential Maintenance due to funding constraint Contractor s & Consultant s Capacity Abnormal Inflation / Price Escalation Law & Order Situation KEY ISSUES Measures Increase in grant from MOC Explore new avenues of revenue generation Mechanism to stop leakages in toll revenue Installation of new weigh stations Strict implementation of NHSO-2000 Provision of impounding areas Imposition of heavy penalties to discourage overloading Implementation of Annual Maintenance Plan in its true spirit. More emphasis on preventive maintenance & rehabilitation rather than reconstruction Training / seminar / workshop programs for all stakeholders
