Abstract:
This document provides guidance on developing an initial lifecycle planning (LCP) process that satisfies the requirements in the Asset Management Rule and leads to the identification of an effective investment strategy for managing transportation assets. As agencies mature in their use of an LCP process it is
anticipated that they will be able to employ more sophisticated analysis tools and techniques.
