摘要
This paper illustrates the use of a hierarchical decision tool to evaluate whether to use accelerated bridge construction (ABC) to replace a bridge in a rural area. County Route EE over Gageby Creek in the Texas Panhandle carries a great deal of truck traffic related to the oil and gas industry in the area. The lack of suitable alternate routes strongly influenced the decision to use ABC. Because customer service was heavily weighted compared with other high-level criteria, such as direct and indirect costs, ABC was the favored alternative. This example shows how ABC may prove appropriate even for a simple bridge in an isolated area.
