Although the smallest of Canadian Provinces,the Province of Prince Edward Island Department of Transportation and Infrastructure Renewal (TIR),is responsible for the densest network of roadway and bridges per capita of any Province in the nation.Over the last 7 years,TIR has taken steps to implement bridge management processes including implementing an advanced bridge management system (BMS)which has enabled the department to make significant improvements in the management of inventory and inspection data,the inspection process,tracking and reporting condition thru a standard condition index,and in handling of inspection photos,videos,plans and other documents.After many cycles of inspections the department has become an experienced user of bridge management processes and BMS and is very pleased with the benefits.This has also included adoption of new performance measures such as a bridge condition index (BCI),inspection completion effectiveness,number of maintenance items,adoption of bridge asset valuation methods from the BMS,and use of risk analysis in decision making process.
