Asset Management Services
Townsend, Massachusetts
BETA worked with the Town of Townsend to develop a Pavement Management Program (PMP) for its 87-mile roadway network. The Pavement Management Program was developed utilizing BETA’s customized Microsoft Access application. This GIS based Program provides Townsend with the opportunity to synthesize pavement condition data with other descriptive information on a host of related roadway elements such as sidewalks and drainage to assist with capital improvement planning (CIP). Paved roadways were inspected, rated, and compiled in the pavement management database that was provided to the Town, along with technical support to Town personnel for use of the PMP database.
Subsequent to the initial PMP development, the Town retained BETA to implement a phased Stormwater System Inventory, starting with locating and inspecting 790 catch basins. Additional stormwater infrastructure assets can be added to the inventory as funding will allow. All data will ultimately be incorporated into BETA’s Stormwater Asset Program and overall Asset Management System (AMS).
