Book excerpt: Between Jan. 1, 2006 and June 24, 2008, a total of 1,280 serious defects were identified on 228 State and 495 locally-owned highway bridges in New York State. To determine whether these defects were addressed within the required time frame of seven weeks, the report reviewed the records relating to a sample of 204 of the defects which pertain to 44 State and 74 locally owned bridges. It found that 69 of the 204 defects (33.8%) pertaining to 25 State and 16 locally owned bridges were not addressed within the required time frame. In fact, it took, on average, more than 17 weeks to address these 69 defects. This report contains 11 recommendations for strengthening the Dept.¿s oversight of the actions taken in addressing serious structural defects on bridges.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.
