A diverse and talented group of National Park Service (NPS) professional planners, construction managers, and laborers work together to keep America moving to and through their national parks!
The NPS uses asset management tools and practices to manage and improve its roads & pavement network and manage and improve its bridges, as well as improve congestion and safety. By gathering information on asset location, condition, deterioration, and possible fixes, asset management practices enable NPS to anticipate and prioritize maintenance and replacement needs based on given budgets & funding. This allows the NPS to determine the best actions to take from the standpoint of lowest costs to NPS, continued protection of resources, and greatest benefit to park visitors.
