Main goal of Road Network Management System is to ensure safety and continuity of road traffic on road network with low intensity and lower technical requirements. This is achieved with pavement management system (main component of road network management system). Most countries developed custom Pavement management systems (PMS) based on deterministic or probabilistic approach. Local road administrators of low level road networks often lack the software equipment such as HDM-4, RoSy, Exor, etc. These and similar PMS Most PMS, however effective, are often cumbersome, demanding in regard to energy, know-how and software equipment. The majority of local road administrators of rural road networks thus resort to non-effective reactive maintenance strategies. This article describes an easy to use method, based on predetermined maintenance repair & rehabilitation standards. Secondly, a simple method, based on road user cost, is introduced that administrator can use to prepare a list of road section eligible for repair according to their repair priority.
