Estimating Vehicle Operating Costs Caused by Pavement Surface Conditions

This paper presents a summary of findings on the effect of pavement roughness [international roughness index (IRI)] and texture [mean profile depth (MPD)] on vehicle operating costs. The most important cost affected by roughness was fuel consumption, followed by repair and maintenance, then tire wea...
