Optimal pavement management: Resilient roads in support of emergency response of cyclone affected coastal areas [PDF]

Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, 2019
Roads in poor road condition disrupt emergency operations in disaster-prone areas during emergency periods. Prolonged inundation of pavements from storm surge accelerates deterioration of pavements and increases maintenance cost.
