Abstract:
Each year, thousands of utilities are installed within the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) right-of-way (ROW). With the proliferation of utilities within its ROW, TxDOT is finding it increasingly difficult to allow more utilities and to manage its own transportation system effectively.
Knowing the location and current operating status of utilities is crucial for managing the ROW and for planning and executing transportation improvements.
Unfortunately, TxDOT has no system-wide capability to capture and inventory utilities or medium by which to document and display them in reference to existing and proposed transportation improvements.
