Road Master Optional

Road Surface Management for Local Agencies is a new course that is being developed cooperatively by the Kentucky Transportation Center--through the Technology Transfer Program and the Pavements and Materials Section--and the Plantmix Asphalt Industry of Kentucky (PAIKY).

This one-day course will count as a Road Master Optional workshop for those local agency employees as well as others who are working on their Roads Scholar/Road Master designations. The Governor's Office for Local Development (GOLD). has approved this course for six hours of training for county elected officials.

The Agenda will be placed on this site by the end of December. Please keep checking back for additional information.

Date and location
Please note that the Road Surface Management for Local Agencies will be presented as part of the PAIKY Winter Training School on February 7-9, 2005, at the Galt  House East in Louisville. You can take this course by itself (February 8, 2005) or as part of the PAIKY Winter Training School. 


Course Description

Effective local government agencies understand the benefits of managing their assets. Given the tremendous investment in roads and streets, it is important that local officials implement a system to determine pavement conditions and prioritize maintenance and rehabilitation. Not only is this good practice but it also provides a subjective and defensible process for evaluating needs and requesting financial resources. This course will provide the local official the management tools necessary to implement a program in their city or county. In addition, the participants will receive guidance on contract documents, materials requirements and oversight of construction operations.


Course Materials

Each session will include a written description of the topic and will be included in the handout materials. In addition, a companion PowerPoint presentation will be developed that will follow along with the written text.
