PAVEMENT CONDITION INDEX (PCI)
Data driven pavement evolution to support smarter maintenance decisions and longer lasting roads
Reliabe Insights for stronger infrastructure
At GB ROAD & BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, we use the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) to assess the health of pavement networks and help agencies prioritize maintenance and rehabilitation investments.
PCI provides a clear picture of pavement condition based on visible distresses such as cracks, rutting, potholes, and surface wear. Our advanced inspection methods and engineering expertise ensure accurate, repeatable, and actionable results.
Whether you manage urban streets, rural roads, or national highways, our PCI surveys help extend pavement life and optimize maintenance budgets.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is a standardized rating system used to evaluate the surface condition of asphalt and concrete pavements. It assigns a score from 0 to 100, where higher scores indicate better pavement condition.
A PCI assessment helps identify pavement deterioration early, allowing property owners and agencies to prioritize maintenance, extend pavement life, reduce repair costs, and improve safety.
PCI is determined through a detailed visual inspection of pavement distresses such as cracking, rutting, potholes, raveling, and surface deformation. The observed defects are measured and analyzed according to industry standards to produce a final condition score.
Most organizations perform a PCI survey every 2 to 5 years, depending on pavement age, traffic volume, environmental conditions, and maintenance requirements.
A PCI survey provides accurate pavement condition data, supports informed maintenance decisions, reduces long-term rehabilitation costs, improves budgeting, and enhances overall pavement performance.
PCI scores are generally classified as:
- 85–100: Excellent
- 70–84: Good
- 55–69: Fair
- 40–54: Poor
- 25–39: Very Poor
- 0–24: Failed
These ratings help determine the most appropriate maintenance or rehabilitation strategy.
