Abstract Key to understanding the needs and tools of road infrastructure management is identifying the hazards and their sources involved in having no or faulty road restraint systems. Clarity is also needed on why the systems are wrongly designed, constructed, built and operated. To ensure that the problem is adequately understood, research and site observations were conducted and mathematical models were built to describe the level of roadside risk. To aid studies of road safety barrier and other road safety equipment functionality, it is vital to carry out field crash tests and crash test simulations. The main goal of the work is to develop a method for selecting optimal road restraint systems.

For several years, the Albanian Road Authority under the administration of the Ministry of Infrastructure also public transport, following the process of maintenance of national roads, even the Albanian Fund for Development of road infrastructure management agency that handled the funds public for the construction of national infrastructure in rural areas, have seen the need to develop a strategy for the management of maintenance and financial management, based on current accounting principles and efficiency in the use of funds for investment. This includes the use of a balance of investments made to launch a database for years and the development of basic documents for the planning and control of public spending in these activities. The question that arises and requires an analysis is

Infrastructure Maintenance

The maintenance planning within the urban road infrastructure management is a complex problem from both the management and technoeconomic aspects. The focus of this research is on decision-making processes related to the planning phase during management of urban road infrastructure projects. The goal of this research is to design and develop an ANN model in order to achieve a successful prediction of road deterioration as a tool for maintenance planning activities. Such a model is part of the proposed decision support concept for urban road infrastructure management and a decision support tool in planning activities. The input data were obtained from Circly 6.0 Pavement Design Software and used to determine the stress values (560 testing combinations). It was found that it is possible and desirable to apply such a model in the decision support concept in order to improve urban road infrastructure maintenance planning processes.

The article is devoted to the issue of increasing the level of road safety (RTS), a road infrastructure management system using simulation modeling is proposed. The aim of the study is to develop a simulation model of a problematic section of the road network (UDS) in the city of Elabuga, to select the optimal parameters for the functioning of traffic lights, which will improve the quality of road infrastructure management, while reducing the risk of occurrence and the severity of a road traffic accident (RTA). The analysis of research in the field of traffic management is carried out, methods are considered that allow assessing the risk of accidents, as well as methods for reducing the severity of the consequences of road accidents.

ABSTRACTRoad infrastructure is one of the most important supports needed for the economy development in industrial areas of North Sumatra. North Sumatra’s road infrastructure is often underfunded which has made it difficult to determine the priority order of road infrastructure management resulting in many inequities such as overcrowded roads and increasing numbers of roads in poor condition. In this study a set of complex structure involving various sectors/indicators will be measured and analyzed using multi criteria research method in the form of Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. This study includes literature studies from various related sources, discussions, and distributes questionnaires to expert respondents who have competence in the field of transportation, planning, and execution of road infrastructure. The result showed that the order of priority in road infrastructure management from 5 (five) indicators studied is as follows: 1) accessibility function (39.5%), 2) mobility function (26.1%), 3) road flow function (15.5%), 4) road function (13 %), 5) maintenance cost function (6%).Subsequent to this, the order of priority in road infrastructure management using Integrated Road Management System (IRMS) method was also investigated resulting in different set of priority order. Based on the comparison of the two methods, the AHP method is recommended to be used because some aspects and criteria can be combined so that the priority order can best describe the needs of the public. Keywords: priority, road infrastructure management, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)ABSTRAKSektor jalan merupakan salah satu penunjang yang sangat penting bagi perekonomian dalam perkembangan suatu wilayah yang terdapat pada sentra produksi di Provinsi Sumatera Utara. Keterbatasan dana mengakibatkan sulitnya menentukan prioritas penanganan jalan, sehingga banyak ditemukan ketimpangan seperti banyaknya jalan yang belum mendapat penanganan.Permasalahan pada penelitian ini yang bersifat komplek dengan melibatkan berbagai sektor menjadi alasan mendasar dalam pemilihan metode penelitian multikriteria berupa metode Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Penelitian ini diawali dengan studi literatur dari berbagai sumber terkait, diskusi, dan membagikan kuesioner kepada responden ahli yang memiliki kompetensi di bidang transportasi, perencanaan, dan pelaksanaan. Data hasil kuesioner menunjukkan bahwa dari 5 (lima) kriteria yang diambil dalam penelitian ini yaitu : fungsi aksesibilitas (39.5 %) menduduki peringkat pertama, disusul fungsi mobilitas (26.1 %), fungsi arus ruas jalan (15.5 %), fungsi ruas jalan (13 %) dan fungsi biaya pemeliharaan (6 %).Perolehan urutan prioritas penanganan jalan dengan metode AHP pada penelitian ini berbeda hasilnya dengan menggunakan metode Integrated Road Management System (IRMS). Berdasarkan hasil perbandingan dari kedua metode, metode AHP disarankan untuk digunakan karena beberapa aspek dan kriteria dapat dikombinasikan sehingga urutan prioritas dapat menggambarkan kebutuhan masyarakat dengan baik.Kata Kunci : prioritas, penanganan jalan, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)
