Pavement Interactive

There are several groups that have contributed to the Evergreen content contained within Pavement Interactive. These groups include the University of Washington and the Pavement Tools Consortium. The University of Washington (UW) is proud to be the principal partner in the development, and continued success of Pavement Interactive and the PTC. The team at the UW consists of efforts by many individuals, but the following is the list of principals involved directly in PTC projects and meetings: Joe Mahoney, lead investigator, familiar with all tools; Steve Muench, lead content developer of Pavement Guide Interactive; and George White, lead developer of Pavement Interactive, HMAView, PMSView, and Media Library. The Pavement Tools Consortium (PTC) is a partnership between several state DOTs, the FHWA, and the University of Washington to further develop and use computer-based pavement tools. The major focus of the pavement tools is the enhancement of pavement-related training and construction operations. The Consortium will be funded via a Pooled Fund arrangement and managed by the Washington State Department of Transportation and the Maryland State Highway Administration. Members include: Caltrans; Federal Highway Administration; Florida Department of Transportation (DOT); Idaho Transportation Department; Illinois DOT; Kansas DOT; Maryland State Highway Administration; Minnesota DOT; Texas DOT; and Washington State DOT.
