PCI for Dummies

Think of the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) as a report card for roads, scored from 0 to 100. A higher PCI means smoother rides and less costly repairs down the line. 

Several key factors influence a road’s PCI: 

Pavement age 

Weather conditions 

Traffic loads 

Maintenance & preservation efforts 

Counties and municipalities that prioritize early preservation end up saving big on long-term repairs. By tackling issues while they’re small, they keep roads in better shape and stretch their budgets further. 

PCI isn’t just a number—it’s built on detailed data like cracking, rutting, and surface defects. At ICC-IMS, we collect this data through our cutting-edge Drive ™ platform, which is then processed by Connect™. The result? PCI values you can trust—accurate, repeatable, and backed by advanced analytics.
