Description
Summary:	This report documents the work performed during phase two of Project 0-5534, "Asset Management -- Texas Style." This phase included gathering historical Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) right-of-way acquisition information, analyzing statistical information, and then developing simulation and optimization tools for TxDOT right-of-way sections and budget decision makers. These tools are designed to provide decision support as optimal strategies for use of early right-of-way acquisition methods are considered at project, district, and state levels. Implementation planning includes cooperative use of the tools with selected districts. This project also included a research team review of TxDOT's fleet vehicle replacement strategies and assessment of potential use of business science tools to assist decision makers in this area of operations.
