Book NCDOT Benefit cost Analysis for Planning Highway Projects

Download or read book NCDOT Benefit cost Analysis for Planning Highway Projects written by Daniel J. Findley and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evaluating the economic feasibility of highway projects can be a time consuming and difficult process. Over time and a variety of projects, analysts may use inconsistent methods and data with the result that similar projects cannot be compared with respect to their relative costs and benefits. To rectify these problems the North Carolina Department of Transportation supported this effort to develop a tool that will provide consistent estimates of the costs and benefits for various highway projects. The tool developed by this effort applies concepts from the AASHTO Redbook and a customized version of the Redbook Wizard spreadsheet. The final report documents the project, provides a user manual, and develops case study applications for several types of highway projects.
