The Division of Transportation uses a computerized Pavement
Management System (Argus) to target sections of roadway for preservation projects. Each fall, one-quarter of the system is tested on a fouryear rotation—the test results are used by the software to develop an
optimum set of recommended projects for the next five years.
Lake County has made a significant investment in its pavements; the estimated cost to build the existing county roadway network
today exceeds $1.6 billion. Preservation projects help to protect this
investment, and provide smooth pavements and bridges without load
limits to highway users.
